    Default Rhino/Nitro/tru-glo ?????

    I'v been pondering the thought of paying this much money for a choke and have just about decided on the Rhino 660. ( My gun SPST 12 Ga. Super full factory choke) I'v never been one to pattern very much but I shot the other day at 40yds (twice) with hv's #5 3" and only put 3 in the 3"circle both shots and only 23 and 14 respectively in what I would call blood drawing spots on the turkey target... now I realize I probably killed the bird with both shots but I just want the satisfaction of knowing that I'v done all I can do to make that 50 yd shot with confidence if I have too...now I know that guns perform different and I maybe taking a chance with this setup for my gun, but with all I have read on here the nitro/rhino setup seems to be the way to go if you dont mind spending the money, I'm also thinking about trading the beads in for the truglo pro series mag dot sights also. Are these sights low profile enough( I have not looked at a set on a gun like mine) and do I really need the elevation adjustment type sight.... any thoughts pos or neg would be appreciated thanks guys and good luck hunting, it's been a miserable weekend(rain) here in Alabama [ QUOTE ]

    Doesn't matter what gun you use, the Nitro/Rhino performs out of all of them, and there's no way around it. The reason the ammo and loads cost so much is because it takes all the guess work out of trying 9 different shells out of 10 different chokes. In all actuality, the Nitro/Rhino combo isn't as expensive as people think when you factor in the prices of different loads and chokes to test, PLUS, you know it's going to perform as I mentioned.


    Here are a couple of my patterns with my 835 and the Nitro/Rhino combo.


    40 yards (340 + BB's in a 10" circle, pattern is to the left cause it was WINDY!!)...














    25 yards with hardly any wind....










    THERE IS NO BETTER PATTERNING SHELL & CHOKE COMBO ON THE MARKET!!!!!!! You'd be a smart man to invest the money and get maximum performance out of your gun IMO
