Coyote Creek Calls Travis Alzate

[Hoobilly]

Travis and I had discussed IndianCreek chokes forbhis testing of his 12 & 20ga coyote loads. Have him my thoughts and he tried 4 chokes total. 2 in each of the 12 & 20ga. He hit a home run..
Here’s his post from Facebook I copied to share here.

Been working on some scattergun ammo here lately. As well as getting a Winchester 1300 ready for some coyotes. I'm getting close to having a good load.
2 3/4 , 12ga , 2oz , #1 Tss , 94 pellets per load.

Winchester 1300 , 20in barrel , forcing cone lengthened.
Indian Creek .690 is first pic
Indian Creek .680 is 2nd pic. Both at 40 yards

I am not as familiar with how TSS acts as I am with steel and lead. So would the .680 pattern be a result of over choking and causing the pattern to blow?

Yes exactly
And 695-700 would be more open if a person would want that

Good deal, thanks.

That .690 pattern looks devastating. I can't imagine many dogs walking away from that one.

Hoping Travis gets to shoot that load at 60 70 yards to see how it does further

Coyote hunt a lot with my 20. Does he have any patterns from a 20? I’m shooting the factory modified with number 3’s right now but I haven’t shot one over about 35 yards with it yet

[Hoobilly]

LAturkey he has 2’s on the way but did test with 1’s
54 out of 76
1 5/8 oz load
20ga , Winchester 1300 , IC choke .570
40 yards.

I wonder if the .562 I have would work?

I would think that would have a blown pattern with big Tss shot.
I would want more open

Yea that’s what I figured that’s why I never tried it. Might need to get a .570

I think more like 575 or even 580-585 for big pellets. I will be loading (hopefully) 2X4's in a duplex
