Trulock .560 choke
Has anybody tried the Trulock.560 with a load of tss 9’s. I would like to see some patterns if possible. Thanks
Re: Trulock .560 choke
wvhunter74,
That is the Trulock Fed Heavyweight #7 choke. The photo is close to the "average" pattern I get with an 1 3/8 oz load of 9's out of a 20 gauge at 40 yards. I get an average of 284 in the 10 inch circle and 133 in the 20 inch circle. This is out of a Remington 21" barrel. It's got a dense core and thins out pretty quickly in the 20" circle.

Re: Trulock .560 choke
I have a Carlson.565 and tightwad.570 to try just waiting on some shot. I plan on running 1 5/8 thru these chokes hopefully something will work.
Re: Trulock .560 choke
Same load through a Carlson .575 flush mount turkey choke. It's a more even distribution between the 10" and 20", but I need to tweak things to try to get rid of the holes in the 20" ring...
Re: Trulock .560 choke
How are going to tweak things? I am new to all of this but I have noticed a hole in my pattern as well, so if there's something I can do to help it, I'd like to know. Thanks in advance!
Re: Trulock .560 choke
Try an undertaker.582
More open chokes tend to help even the patterns.

Re: Trulock .560 choke
Suggestions for tweaking loads to improve patterns gleaned from past posts on this board-
• Reduce amount of buffer used (if part of recipe)
• Change the slit depth or number of slits on the wad
• Drop the powder charge a little
• Try a different choke on your gun
