Predator Shot Conclusions:
--------------------------
Well, I think we're seeing some better patterns out of this session.
A friend told me about the HS Undertaker choke one of his friends uses out of his SBE2 and has excellent patterns (although I'm not sure what with).
I think the .685 HS Undertaker showed some really good patterns, the best I've seen thus far and offers a few options.
The 3" Wingmaster HD BB pattern isn't bad at all...definitely worthwhile to hunt with and probably worth seeing how 50 and 60 yard patterns hold, as well as respective penetration.
The 3.5" Wingmaster HD BB pattern also isn't bad but has some more gaps than the 3", but is also worth firing another shot or two maybe to see how the shell variation is.
Both the 3.5" DC T and 3.5" Wingmaster HD T show some promise. Not too many flyers in either, and pretty cored clustering.
I'm leaning towards these as what I'd consider the best overall patterns thus far out of the gun for Predator shot.
The Kicks Light Full certainly wasn't bad for the 3.5" DC but I still feel like the above are better.
