Will do. Thank you.

KEO, how can I get powder weights if it says max dram, or 3 3/4 drams. How do you convert that to pounds? Thanks

Wondering what produces the recoil from a given shell, velocity or weight of payload? Or a combo of both?

Another Nebraska bird from this weekend with White spurs. Bottom of his feet look like he’s been hanging out in a silage pile at one of the nearby feed lots!

Here is a Nebraska bird that is molting spurs. We see this regularly. I would assume a bird would need to be at least a second year bird to do this.

The puppy in the first shot turned into a beast of a 1.5 yr old pictured with some Nebraska roosters from this fall. Oh wait, there’s no pheasant in Nebraska!

Here’s a couple.

So I finally had time to pattern the Boss 20gauge, 3”, 1 1/8oz, #4, through my Benelli M2, Crio chokes. Pattern at 40 yds. Full choke averaged 142 pellets in a 30” circle. A little blotchy, but not bad. Boss claims 174 pellets for 1 1/8 oz of 4 shot. That gives about an 82% pattern. IM...

GB, they are from separate breeders that are trial guys. The dogs are uncle and nephew. Both from FC Steeple Hill Ranger lineage.

My boys go hard. They love to roll in dead, stinky stuff!

Thanks for the clarification. I plan on patterning my Boss 20 ammo in my M2 20ga in the next couple weeks. I’ll report my findings once I do.

Was this with an M1 or M2? And which shell? Thx

Thanks for the info. Yes, M1 is Mobil choke system. M2 is the crio choke. No need to count pellets. Maybe I’ll try my M2 and start with the IM.

Hi all, I am looking for a recommendation on what choke to start with for patterning some 20 gauge Boss 11/8 oz #4. I shoot a benelli m1 and m2. I thought I would start with a Full and go from there. Has anybody here done any pattern work with a Benelli and the Boss ammo? Thank for any...
