Muddyboots you got a pic of that rig? Also what's the barrel length and how does she shoot?
Everyone said the 2 7/16 loads didn't do to good in the remington so was just wondering.

Everyone said the 2 7/16 loads didn't do to good in the remington so was just wondering. My 870 SP setup mentioned above shoots the H517 ammo (2 7/16 oz) like a dream. Good dense patterns with little to no voids in it. I have been thoroughly impressed with these shells in my gun. The only negative is target shooting as the 2 7/16 ounce loads kill on both ends when shooting at paper. Not so much, when a long beard is the target.

Ill take a pic of it and post it. I bought some of the 2 7/16 loads by mistake and when i shot the first one i thought wow that kicked more but the pattern was awesome. After some investigation i figured out what had happenned. I posted a pattern last year and a guy said i was lying so i try not to do that anymore but its bad!
