    Guess I was just lucky. My patterning efforts were nearly identical to your description. For some reason both my Win 1300 and my sons win 1300 shoot about a foot high with any load 2 oz or more. Our best was winchester Super X copper clad #6 shot at 1 3/4 or 1 7/8 oz. Of course they are getting hard to find as I believe Winchester has quit making them. I found a bunch at wally world and bought them all. We are going to try the win extended range shells but have yet to do it.
