Mossberg 935

[Xcutter]

Got the 935 back from mossberg and it seems to be in good working order. I now have a very sore shoulder. I have tried 3.5 #5 hevi shot, win supreme 3.5 #5 and some Federal flight control 3.5 #5's and can tell little difference in any of them. They are all capable of killing a bird at 45 yards. Anyone else shooting this gun with a different type of shell. BTW I have a primos tightwad choke .690 con.

I nevr have been much on Federals and thats the first results i have heard from the flight controls but i have heard that the Heavyweight stuff is pure crap. I saw the pattern results and Hevi-Shot ruled as usual and then the Winny Supreme HV pattern 3x as better than that new Federal ammo.

My old 835 love rem. ammo expecally duplex shells maybe you should try some.I was wondering how the 935 compared to the 835 mossberg if it shots as good or close I may get one.I have took birds at 60 yards with my 835 with red dot scope on it madd chock .

I tried all of the ammo you listed, plus Kent brand. The Kent outshot them all. Have to give you a shell or two and see what ya think when I'm down this weekend.

i use the winchester supreme 3 inch 2 oz # 4 shot..
i highly reccomend dropping down to a 3 inch shell.. i was shooting 3 1/2 for a while and they were tearing my shoulder up.. went to a 3inch and it was much better and you can still kill a bird @ 40 yards same as you could with a 3 1/2

The hevi shot was a tight more dense pattern but not sure if the price diff. was worth the few extra shot in the kill zone. I do like shooting the 3.5's even though they kick like a young mule. I just put the .24 inch drop shim in the stock so I don't have to crouch my neck down and press my cheek so hard to the stock. I was getting one heck of a sore cheek bone!!!! Has anyone else had that problem??? Have not shot it since hopefully that did the trick.
