Any of you Winchester SXP owners put your guns to the pattern board yet? I ask because I have started to and am trying to find what you guys have tried and what were your findings? So far I have ran blindside #2's, Fasteel #2's and #3's threw mine with the Fasteel shotshells giving the best patterns thru the factory Imp. cyl. but the patterns aren't as good as I expect in comparing to some of the other guns I have or had. I'm deffinently going to invest in a set of Carlson waterfowl chokes sometime here, but I am curious what you guys are finding with some other brands of shells thru the factory chokes.

Thanks, Vincent

I got the Carlson waterfowl chokes and patterned my SXP with them and had 100 times better patterns with everything except Kent #2 in 3" or 3 1/2". I got to find some #2's  that will give me a good pattern with this thing for hunting mallards on lakes here. I get some longer shots and prefer them over #3's for that stuff. I still have to pattern some blindside 3" #2's that I have thru the Carlsons to see if I can get a useable pattern out of it. If any of you have some suggestions of something that would be worth trying I'm all ears.
