I\'ve never really thought about which shell had the best pattern. To be honest, all of the terminology is pretty confusing. But I will definitely start using the Nitros or AA. I could use all the help that I can get.

I shot 5 stand a couple of weeks ago. I accidentally bought 2 boxes of 12 ga. Winchester AA Low Recoil loads. I could not hit a thing, on top of that, there was not enough power in the shell to cycle the action on my benelli super black eagle (early model). Once I used those up, I started hitting more targets. I would only recommend the low recoil loads to a new, small framed shooter who's learning how to shoot.
