    Bigger shot patterns better with mid range chokes. If you go with a long range choke downsize and go with #3 or 4s.

    With what little I know as well about waterfowl, the Kent with the cremater is well above average to really good. I haven’t seen many guns shoot a whole lot better.

      I think I'm going to stock up with a few boxes. My buddy has the Stoeger M3000. He had the same results with Kent.

      The odd thing was, my buddy was there with his Stoeger M3000, and those 2 also had the best patterns.

      @@Windwalker_Outdoors I shoot the Stoeger M3500, and have the Carlson mid range and long rang cremator chokes and the mid range did better for me. I also used the Kent fast steel and that was great. Another good shell to try is remington high speed steel. These two are great shells that pattern well and are cheap. If you could use a dove load in those chokes that would be good to because I would like to see how they pattern. Also great video !

    Your choke doesn’t seem to like the larger shot fire some number 4’s In The hevi stuff and you might like it.

    I'm watching this at the end of Sept. so you probably won't see this but, I'll send anyway. Most of your patterns were centering about 6 inches left. It would seem that your "Cast" needs to be adjusted, they make shims for that problem. It's not really your aim, but how your eye aligns with the rib.

    • @Windwalker_Outdoors
      @Windwalker_Outdoors  5 лет назад

      Yes, I did notice this. I believe the problem may be the way I was lining up the mid bead with the front bead. Hard to explain, but thank you for pointing that out. For some reason, when light hits the silver mid bead, from one side or the other, it makes the bead look off center and I try to compensate. At another pattern session, with different light, patterns were centered. Very hard to explain .

      @@Windwalker_Outdoors I understand then , I've removed those midway beads because they tend to cover the front. If I can't see it, I don't know where I'm at!! Shoot the goose!!!

      Light a match and hold it to your center bead. It will just take the glare off. You can do it to front sights on rifles too. Trick my grandpa taught me from when he was in the Philippines during ww2.

    You should do a video with dove hunting loads? With a modified and improved choke be a good video before dove season. And your buddy too with the Stoeger m3000

      There are two improved chokes, the IC and the IM.in 12 ga, they often measure: Improved cylinder at 10 thou constriction and improved modified 25 thou.

      I have the Cremator Mid Range. It pretty much stays in the gun for everything. About the only time it comes out is for skeet or Turkey.

    Are you using the ported cremator or non-ported. Have a sbe2 thinking of picking up the carlsons just didn’t know how much of a difference between the ported and non ported.

    • @Windwalker_Outdoors

      Mine is non ported. I have a buddy that uses the ported. The ported is louder.

    It still baffles me that so many use shotshells from Heavy-X and Heavy Metal. A simple cutting up of one of their shells says it all - Many of their products resemble welding slag... and they pattern like it. I guess if you throw enough slag at a bird, some of it will hit it.
