Patterned my shotgun
So I just got a beretta a400 xtreme unico and I ordered a patternmaster code black duck. This choke with a 3.5" she'll is a modified. I just patterned it with 3.5" BB hevi metals. I shot 3 shots at 40 yards and counted 74, 89, and 87 bb's in a 30 inch circle. There were a total of 125 bb's in the shells so my average pattern was about 67%. Is this pretty good or is it poor? I read that ideally you want 70-75% which I am not far from.

Can't answer your question but I have one for you. Did you pattern your gun before installing the patternmaster code black duck?
I'd be very interested in knowing how the gun performed with the factory tubes. |

No I didn't. I just wanted to see how that combo worked before the season started.

I always found factory choke that best fit my shooting, Modified is my all time fav. I've hunted with guys that have these patteren master chokes I just can't justify spending that for a little improvment, although some guns won't patteren and you have to go after market.

The patternmaster in my SuperNova is bad to the bone. Less cripples. Had down. And let a duck land on the water.

patterns
Get down, cover up, and call them in closer. That's my opinion. Use the extra money for fancy chokes to buy shells....

I don't wanna start a fight here because as far as anyone is concerned nobody else knows anything. But I've killed my share of ducks. And with my Patternmaster versus without I get more dead birds and less cripples. And the third shot that usually ends up wasted or just not shot is now a legitimate kill shot.
