[QUOTE="JimFromTN, post: 4487340, member: 5778"] The vertical stringing on some of them would indicate an improper hold or a barrel heating up. The lightfields are a slower heavier load so they would hit low in comparison to a higher velocity, lighter slug. Make sure the barrel nut is finger tight. You don't need to use a wrench or anything. Make sure you rings are tight. The recoil from a shotgun can shake screws loose. Don't use a lead sled. It could break your scope. If you want to shoot some cheaper stuff, try these. They aren't sabots but they are accurate. You can probably find them cheaper somewhere else. I was hitting clay pigeons at 100 yds with these out of my 870 with a hastings rifled barrel bracing against a post, no bench or rest.
