The tightest patterns come from Federal Flite-Control 2 3/4 00 buck LE with 8 pellets @ 1100 fps, made for law enforcement through cly/open- no choke.


My Benelli M1 Tactical Model shoots that load best through a modified choke. There aren't any concrete rules here, individual barrels are gonna do their own thing and only some range time and some large pattern paper will tell the tale for your gun.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
