Anyone have experience with these new shotshells on Coyotes? They look impressive on paper, but...
Recommended choke restriction? Thanks
I shoot extra full to a .660 turkey choke with Lead BB, #4 buck, 00 buck, and 000 buck.

I have had zero problems over the years in spite of what you may have read.

in the 11/87 with a Carlson's turkey choke:

20" 100% pattern with Rem 3", #4 buck
15" pattern with Rem 3" 00 and 000 buckshot

I don't shoot any of the non toxic shot shells, the shot is much harder and requires a more open choke.
I just bought a couple of boxes of Winchester Varmint X .I am going to pattern them this weekend. VersaMax tactical, Carlson turkey choke.665.
I shot my VersaMax Saturday with:
Carlson Extended Turkey choke .665
Winchester Varmint X BB 1300 fps
Federal #4 Buckshot 1210 fps
Remington #4 Buckshot 1225 fps
All three shot great out to 40 yds. But at 50yds the Remington pattern better. Then I decided to hold to the top of my target ( about 6 inches high)and re shoot the Federal #4 buckshot and the Winchester Varmint X . When I held high the Winchester Varmint X shot the best at 50 yds.

You need a big enough backer to see the center of your pattern. Not every shotgun shoots every load to the bead for every shooter.
Thanks for the updates! I only have two boxes and no one carrys it around here. I will try my .665 choke tube as a starting point.
