I did some patterning the other day with my full choke in the under barrel of my 12 gauge. The distance isn't marked, but I believe the steel plate was 35 yards away. I wasn't checking for POI but for the actual size of the pattern. It measured 24" across.
I also checked at 20 yards for POI. I didn't count the little pellet holes, but it looked like my POI was 5 inches high of the POA. I had built up the comb of my XS Skeet with 1/4 inch of molefoam.
These were 1-1/8 oz 1200 fps loads of # 7.5 magnum shot reloaded in once fired Gun Club hulls using Windjammer wads and CCI 209 primers with 19.0 gr of Red Dot for a nominal PSI of about 10,000.
Does this sound about right for a full choke or should I repeat the test. I am going to double check the distance.
