I was wondering the same and even with 28gr of BD I can barely get it to roll crimp to length and run thru my M2.
can't comment on the Pattermasters, but have had exceptional luck with the Blackbore chokes.

I did a little of patterning with my Citori this past summer, more for skeet, but did shoot a few rounds of small bore trap with a Full choke. I run 3/4oz load of #8's with 14.3gr Universal (have...
John, it was the 2nd load with Fiocchi hulls and Steel powder. Used both T and F can't say as I seen much difference. I might switch to a Federal hull this year, they are a little deeper inside and...

I have had better luck with the 6pt vs the 8pt on new hull, but I sprung for the brass one from BPI and it sure does a nice job.

Ed, what's the ID diameter of those 20ga SPW wads?
looks like the same one sold by Slugs-R-Us, which is plastic, which worked so-so for the few rounds I did with it.
Buy the BPI or the steel one from Precision Reloading, both work pretty slick.

Fed 209A and CCI 209m seem to be the hotter of the bunch.
Ajay, how did those 3" rounds with that thick card wad work for you?
PR has one, works like a charm.
