I posted earlier on my pattern w/ my Mossberg 835 w/ factory choke tube and 3 & 1/2 inch Winchester Supreme #5 shot. I realized i was standing up while shooting and gettin about 5-7 pellets in the 3 inch circle at 40 yards. (Not bad, take a turkey easily, but was looking for a better pattern)

I went back out after realizing that i was standing and was probably a bit shakey while standing. I pulled me up a chair and shot with the same setup as above. I shot two times at 40 yards getting 23 pellets into the 3 inch circle. The first shot i put 11 into it, the next shot i put 12 into it.

I see a GREAT difference in if im standing or sitting, either way i still have the ability to drop a turkey at 40 yards, but i feel much more confident about sitting and shooting. I was going to put a different choke tube in my gun and try some different shells, but with those results ill just stick with the factory tube and the Winchester Supremes, its just like the old saying (If it ain't broke, don't fix it).
