My 220 20ga was a major disappointment the range!

So what was your final descision with ammo? I am strugling with my 220 Have shot hornady sst, remington accu tip, and federal barnes expander tip and nothing patterns at 100 yards! Looking for any advice you got.

I have shot the Remington Copper 260 gr. 2 3/4 inch with not so good groups at 100 yards. A little over 3 inches, which is not really bad for a slug gun. I switched to the 3 inch Federal's with the blue tipped Barnes bullets, and my groups went to 2 inches at 100 yards. I then went to the 3 inch Remington Acutips, and got 1 to 1/14 inch groups at 100 yards. My scope is a Leupold 2X7X33 shotgun scope, with heavy reticle. Also using Leupold rings with a Weaver one peice mount. So for me the gun and ammo work great. Good luck with your gun, hope you find something out.

3" lightfields in mine work great

I just bought mine last weekend, kinda disappointed that it likes 3inch, I am not a fan of the "kick".
not only that, I ONLY have 2 3/4 slugs, arrrrrgh. **&&&^^%

Seems I may have to try some 2 3/4 inch Accutips, as I can't seem to find any 3 inch Accutips. They are out of stock every where. Now I do find the 2 3/4 inch still. Mine also like the 3 inch Federal Barnes Expanders. To me the recoil was no different from the 2 3/4 inch copper premium to the 3 inch Accutips. Still a lot less than a 2 3/4 inch 12 gauge.

What kind of groups are you getting with the 3 inch lightfields at 100 yards?

[tyler.woodard04]

2-3" range.
