New killer 20

Post by youngun15 »

Guy brought a this gun in to try to sell it because he wasn't a hunter or a shooter. He had just gotten lucky at a banquet he went to with a friend. I offered him $300 and he accepted the offer. Ordered an IC 555 for it and let her rip. I put the IC in the top and factory full in the bottom. Ill shoot HW 7 out of the full for "closer" birds. Stevens 555 20ga with a 26" barrel. The gun loaded is only 7 lbs. After shooting it I am excited about carrying it!

Don't have any numbers but here are the shots I took. (I shot all of them free handed standing so "off center was just me. Both barrels had same pot/poi)

43 steps IC 555 and TSS 9s

The top pattern is TSS 9s out of the IC and the bottom is HW7 out of factory full, both at 26 steps.

You stole that one! I looked at a Stevens 555 at academy. Sticker was $599. I want one since I've looked at it and felt how light it was. Congrats on the gun and nice patterns!
