Federal Copper Plated 12ga 2-3/4" 9 Pellet 00 Buck Test W/ 11-87 & Kicks Buck Kicker Full Choke

The Federal Premium 2-3/4” Short Mag 12 pellet “00” copper Plated that I tested had a similar pattern at 50 yards. Dropping down to the Buck Kicker Extra Full tightened it up nicely😎😎😎

I do have some of the 2-3/4" 12 pellet 00 copper plated shells to test soon, so we'll see what I can get out of them

Copper plating is a MULTIPLIER ! 👍 💯

[@matttyreeoutdoors]

It definitely seems to help

[@ckiefner715]

I have shot some decent patterns with my 870 using my dead coyote choke

[@matttyreeoutdoors]

Yeah, they seem to be pretty decent shells, but I still think we can get a little bit more out of them

[@bestestusername]

It would be interesting to do 2 shots on the same paper when it comes to OO or OOO buck as no 2 shells will fire the same. A second may have been tighter or more spread? I am going to try it when i am out next work permitting. Love the vids🦘

[@matttyreeoutdoors]

Yes, we could do multiple shots, but in my experience, we really won't see much of any difference and would probably waste more ammo than what it's worth. Now if a shell is doing something weird, then I would definitely consider a second shot

[@Cr0wmagnum]

I'm wondering what effect the ports have on the patterns vs. Nonported? I'm with you on this one. I'd like to see a more uniform pattern out of that.

[@matttyreeoutdoors]

I would love to have the same Buck Kicker choke with no porting to see what it would do, but I don't think Kicks makes that as an option. They definitely have some effect, but it's hard to say how much without a comparison

[@M.H.D.actual]

Man, I thought this would do as good as the Winchester military buckshot but I guess having that little wad might have affected it negatively with the kicks choke. Still not bad for 40 yd!

[@matttyreeoutdoors]

Yeah, I kinda though we would see a little bit better as well, but they still weren't bad

[@shaneiveson517]

Not to bad and the flight control was first marketed for and not needing a choke for defensive shotguns and people who had a fixed cylinder improved cylinder to get the results of using a full choke

[@matttyreeoutdoors]

They do perform well with those much more open chokes, but they definitely pattern way better through a mod or full choke based on some of our testing

Hogs and Deer not sutable Buckshot. Need more stopping power. Slug is best option. These shells more than expensive regular 1 0z slugs.
