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.

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

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).

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

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!

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.

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

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.

Man this video is 3 years old, we just started doing this at the time watch the new vids and you’ll be pleased Regardless the points remain true even if we tested differently than we do now Even with adding the backer and marking the full pattern the points in this test have proved true at least in our setups

It’s funny to me people can’t tell a pattern unless it’s perfectly center lol It’s very easy to see a pattern regardless of point of impact But things have changed just a touch this video is from 2019 my guy, you live, you learn and you improve
