28 yards (shooting off of my trailer railing as a rest) 3 1/2 inch Kent #5s- 2 1/4oz “diamond shot” I had to move my add on rear sight back to lower the pattern to get on target because it was a bit high. Almost to much shot on target I have the same shells in 3 inch. Italian slug rear site the best I found made for the the Italian thinner brand shotgun ribs but with a little filing and it fits a Versa Max no problem.

Don't know about you guys but unless he sneaks in behind me he ain't getting within 25 yards before I shoot !!!

Don't get much better than that, nice full pattern impressive. Shot it again today. Pretty much the same. 201 in the 10" and 137 in the 10"-20". Loaded up ten more of them so my boy is ready. My 301 already has a load it likes. Gonna work on a LC Smith in the morning if the weather cooperates. Pretty sure it will be a 25-30 yard max tho. I will try to post those patterns.

With the TSS and other Super Shots.... I have no idea why anyone would pack a 3 1/2" gun thru the woods.
