The velocity of LE132 #1 buckshot is only 1100 FPS. I am not sure how to calculate DRAM since the term was used for black powder. I know some shot shells list the dram equivalent but Federal does not on their box.

Patterned a few rounds this afternoon. Used a Vang Comp'd Wilson 870 and a police trade in 870 Wingmaster with cylinder choke. The trade in 870 patterned better. Only shot at 25/20/15.

AFIAK, these are designed to shoot from a cyl/ imp choke for best results. Not familiar with the Vang Comp, but if it interferes with the Flite Control wad that will affect the pattern according to the literature.

I went to the range today and tried the LE132 #1 buckshot again. I have not shot any for more than 3 years. I tried at 40 feet instead of 21 feet. I shot 5 rounds and last shot went a bit high. Even at 40 feet there was not a lot of pattern.
The shotgun is an 18.5" Mossberg 590A1 with a S&J Hardware +2 extension. Added a LimbSaver recoil pad, a buttstock side saddle, and a TLR-1s light. Has a simple bead sight.

I have heard the Vang work does adversely impact the Flite Control shells. This proves it to me...Originally Posted by NickySantoro

SGAmmo has the 13200 in stock at a pretty good price I think. I just bought a case of that and a 50 round pack of Winchester Ranger slugs since I only have buck and bird at the moment. 12 gauge is the first ammo stash I've hit my minimum requirement for so I'm happy about that now. I'll just have to buy more in case I actually want to shoot...
