3 inch VS 3.5 inch turkey load pattern test | is 3.5 worth it? |

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Comment below what you’ll be using come season!!

[@jamesparlane9289]

The 60 yard test should have been repeated. Both need to be fully on target for a proper comparison.

[@MrMblaze8597]

I "feel" like the 80 should have been redone because in all honesty I don't know why but I feel like the 3 inch hold their pattern better all the way out. May not have the speed of the 3.5 but I feel like they are the tightest pattern past 45 yards.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

We will be redoing this test as we now implement a backer behind each target to get the full pattern My thoughts is the 3’s pattern more consistent especially at longer ranges from having to force less shot down the barrel and through the choke thus having less stress in the shot string creating less of a “blowout” pattern

[@joshuabennett7334]

@@MrMblaze8597 3.5 shells are slower because they are pushing a bigger payload with the same powder weight. You can’t just increase the powder because you get into unsafe pressures

[@ChadsNewEnglandTracks]

@@MrMblaze8597 the 3inch are actually a 150fps faster than the 3.5 in shells

[@vintagerecordambassadeur4098]

Answer..no. No need to shoot anything over 2 3/4”. Well except if your goal is to make ammo manufacturers richer.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Actually going to be testing 2 3/4 vs 3 next

[@claycarter5915]

Wow. I taged out last spring with a single shot with mod choke useing 3inch double x. 2 ounces of copper plated #6's. Got a double barrel for this spring!

[@jimhelms7178]

If you can't call for s@#! then you need the 3.5.

[@MajorHoss]

I think the 3 1/2 inch with more BBs in the shell distorts the pattern worse at further range than a 3 inch

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Correct stress in the shot string isn’t a good thing and pushing all that shot through the forcing cone into the barrel and through the choke puts stress into the shot string, more so in 3.5’s

[@driftlesshunter9200]

The speed on the box of 3" & 3.5" loads are the same. If the speed of the pellets are the same, you can't really say a pellet from a 3.5" load is hitting harder than one from a 3" load. Momentum = mass x velocity. The kick of the 3.5 load is hitting your harder, because you're sending more mass down range. Force = mass x acceleration. Personally, your 3" loads patterned better. I see no advantage in paying extra for 3.5" loads. 3.5" loads are punishing in any light pump gun, & the pattern was not as good. I would take a nice spread out pattern over anything else. Just my observation. Good test, because you only changed one variable (3.5" vs. 3" Winchester loads).

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Thanks man we’re with ya!

[@pickngrining]

Personal opinion. Hunt the bird and get him in close enough so there is no need for a long range shot. All my birds have been harvested with 3” most of mine taken with non XR shells. LB XR is a fantastic round regardless. Good video. Thx for making it.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

I agree nothing beats working an ol’ sky Longbeard in tight to the decoys!! Just it’s nice to have that “just in case” good tight pattern at longer ranges!!

[@yourmomma2995]

i have always found 3" shells pattern better than 3.5". also you dont have near enough retained energy to kill a turkey at anywhere near 80 yards with #5 lead shot. winchester did testing several years ago and determined that each pellet needs to retain 2ft lbs of energy to penetrate a turkeys skull/vertebrae. if i remember correctly #5 lead shot was capable to almost 50 yards.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Yes I seen your other comment better be careful that guy you were arguing with me return 🤣🤣

[@njgrplr2007]

I'm here to tell you that 3" Long Beard XR #5 lead shot has consistently killed turkeys for me at 55+ yards.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

It can but I would never make it a habit, I’d much rather work birds in tight

[@TherealBrooks-zc5kc]

3 inch is fine. It would be a long range scenario for it to make any difference I don't want to shoot at 60 yards. And so many will say the 3and1/2 doesn't kick that bad! But even 3 inch turkey loads will slap a shoulder pretty good. Try a 3nd1/2in. Turkey load in a single shot lightweight back pack 12 gauge. The 3" will do just fine. I experienced more recoil than any shell or rifle bullet I've ever fired. Seriously. From a mossberg the recoil is fine. But I still thunk 3" shells are good enough... and not many guns chamber 3and1/2. Unless they're turkey guns or duck/geese guns

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

3’s pattern better than 3.5’s in waterfowl or turkey loads 95% of the time in our setups

[@21McLain21]

With the gun throwing both patterns high left id be switchin loads to shoot so id be dead on every time. Also thats the first time iv seen long beards not be dead on out of any shot gun

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

My gun wasn’t zeroed

[@driftlesshunter9200]

I will be using a Browning Gold 10 (26" barrel) with an Indian Creek Black Diamond Strike choke & 3.5" Hevi-shot Hevi-13 #5 shot. 10 gauge limits choices in loads, but this choke & load work very well together. The patterns are wonderful. Gas-operated 10 gauge shooting 3.5" loads kicks less than my 12 gauge pump. My back up gun is my trusty 12 gauge Remington 870 Express. Switch the 28" barrel to a 21" barrel with an Indian Creek choke. I haven't tried the Long Beard loads at this point. I've used mostly 3" Hevi-13 loads #6 shot, & I have some 3" Federal TSS #9. I haven's shot a bird with the Federal loads, but they all shoot nicely out of the Indian Creek choke. When I picked up a used Browning Gold 10, I sold a 3.5" Remington pump gun that I had to a friend. My dad & cousin shoot the 835 (purchased these guns for both of them), & it is a good turkey gun. I don't like the rattle in the stock, but they do shoot great. My dad does better with 3" loads, too. He shot one 3.5" turkey load, & he'll never do that again. :) He'll be 80 this June. He's terrible at estimating ranges, & he's made some very long shots with Hevi-13 loads & a Carlson Hevi-13 choke. Happy turkey hunting to everyone!

[@josephsnisky1851]

It's all in the mood your in . Most of the time I prefer the 3.5 . Our ammo manufacturers have really got the hang of giving us extremely good ammo.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

I have yet to see a reason to shoot 3.5’s over 3’s in regards to pattern performance

[@kykrazy6050]

It really all comes down to one question....Do I want to take more punishment for a few extra pellets? Clearly, one needs to pattern their gun to find out not only what patterns the best ,but if there is a difference in your POI vs POA. There are alot of folks that believe because the 3.5" kicks harder ,you can kill birds further....and nothing could be further from the truth.In the end does it pattern that much better to endure the extra recoil?

[@AdventureOne]

I dig that tactacam mount - I had it barrel mounted and it is fine for dove loads, but doesn't hold up to turkey loads.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Hard to compare when you're shooting free hand. Too much movement. Yes I know when we hunt we generally don't use a rest but when comparing I'd think consistency would be valuable.

[@joshuahunt1210]

You probably know this but you mixed loads. One is a "high velocity" and the other is "magnum." To make the comparison fair you needed to make both "Magnum" or both "HV." Longbeard XR is made in both flavors in both lengths. One loading has more shot and the other has more powder.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

You are right... As stated before these are the two loads I have personally hunted with and the whole point of this test was to see if the 3.5 I hunted with for years actually is better on paper than the 3 inch I switched to... And it’s not 3 inch shells pattern better we have learned this over & over on the pattern series

[@jasonradle7076]

Targets need to be shot separately on the longer shots there are bbs from the 3.5 hitting the target for the 3 inch making rye pattern look better

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Which that just shows the 3’s pattern better than the 3.5’s 🤣🤣

[@jackfrost4227]

Looks like your using "magnum" 3.5 shells. They have more pellets than the standard 1200 FPS rounds. In general most slower FPS shells seem to pattern better. Not exactly apples to apples.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Jack Frost we just put the two loads we use in the turkey woods, some of us shoot the 3 1/2 Longbeard XR some the 3 so that’s why we chose these

[@joshuahunt1210]

Good observation Jack. He probably doesn't know there are two different Longbeard Xr loads in each size. "Magnum" and "High Velocity"

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

We do know this

[@arrow251]

3 1/2 was originally for duck and geese hunters who didn't want to shoot a 10 gauge, not for turkey hunters shooting at something standing still at closer ranges. Definitely need to shoot semi-auto shotgun if shooting allot of those 3 1/2 , and have it adjusted properly.

[@harrydick3300]

Good for taking out 2-3 geese per shell when shooting them on the water with my single shot 12 ga 🤷

[@jcann313]

It looked to me like your pattern is just a little high and left. When you shot the 60 and 80 yard targets it looked like you put some extra pellets in the left target when shooting the right target. You can see it good on the slow motion replay. It would have been better if you would have used 3 or 4 foot cardboard and shot them one at a time to prevent crossover. Still a good video. With a 4 foot piece of cardboard you would get a better idea if your pattern was centered. A lot of times with a real tight choke seems to concentrate the shot tighter right in the center of the pattern.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Watch the new pattern tests, this vid is OLD ahahah

[@tanneroakley8625]

I use a 10 ga New England it seems to not hurt as bad as my 835 and the 10 has a factory x full and the 835 has a tru lock

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Tanner Oakley the New England 10 ga?

[@tanneroakley8625]

Blue Collar Outdoors USA yes sir

[@Chase_H]

My thought is more shot = more bb s in the kill zone if you have the proper setup. I can put 30-35 bb s in the turkeys head at 50 yds and blow out the whole middle of the target at 25 yds with Longbeard 3 1/2" #5 shot out of a Winchester SXP and Carlsons Longbears choke. 3" only puts about 10-15 in the killzone at 50 yds which is still deadly but in those rare cases where you have to reach out there I think a 3 1/2" gives you more insurance

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

In our testing we haven’t seen where a 3.5 out performs a 3 inch consistently at any yardage with 90% of our setups we’ve used to test it

[@marks101885]

It looked like on the 80 yd shot your pattern was falling off. A lot of shot hit the ground in front of the target.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Well that’s expected at 80 yards lol

[@TheJonesn]

3 inch shoots better in 4 different guns with 3 different chokes I've tried.

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Same!

[@jeffreyjones9135]

Yes

[@nathanhileman3848]

I think the 3 1/2" cant take advantage of the extra shot in a 12 gauge. I bet if you shot a 10 gauge, you'd see a much bigger advantage with a 3 1/2" shell over the 3".

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

Probably not it’s all about jamming that much shot through the forcing cone which puts stress in the shot string and makes the shot spring essentially

Long bear xr blows any other lead load on the market out of the water. From my testing 3” actually holds a tighter pattern than 3.5”. 3.5 blows out more long range .

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

[@bgdesignandsolutions]

I think if you switch to a Carlson Long Beard Choke with a .683 constriction, you will find better groups at 60 and 70 yards.

This video is very old, I’d check out the newer vids on the turkey pattern series Also I’m not really to worried about my pattern performance at those distances I don’t like shooting my birds over 35-40 I like em close… nothing beats em in your face!

[@ericeverson6822]

Does barrel length make a difference. I’m thinking and trying to decide on a mossberg 835 with a 28 inch barrel or a browning bps 10 gauge with a 26 inch barrel for turkeys. Would it really make a difference on shots at 60 yrds

[@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA]

It could make quite a difference but hard to say for sure, I love the patterns my 835 throws and it has a short barrel

[@colecathcart8572]

The only difference is should make may be like 20 fps, I’m only 5 foot 8 so I prefer the slightly shorter barrel

Not blind just understand patterns, 3.5 has more shot so it will look more impressive but when you look at the actual pattern density consistently being better in the 3 inch vs the 3.5 We have seen it nonstop in our testing 3 inch shells have had better consistency in patterns over the 3.5 shells it’s purely from having to force less shot down the forcing cone and through the barrel & choke to target it helps the 3 inch shells over the 3.5

[@prtech7805]

For a long range 3 1/2 not successful, because velocity is low, expensive and high kick. And also most Farmers have Bikal Break action single barrel shot guns, can use only 3" magnums or lower lengh cartridges. Unfortunately in Sri Lanka not found winchester ammo. Govenment issue S&B corona 32g 2 3/4 No 04(3mm) shells only. Poor velocity and low load. I think big birds most successful works lead pellot, bcz mass determine damage. Without headshot can't down peackos. In Sri Lanka cultivation biggest pest is peacock, Govenment not got action for this. They eat every one crop and harvest. 😢
