Years later I put countless hours into stripping and sanding, put about 7 coats of true oil on it and. I could barely make out what looked to be a unique piece of wood underneath, so I bought it for 10 or so. Was scratched to heck, chips in the gloss everywhere. However, I?m just the messenger so you can be the judge. I came across an older rem 700 Stock at a yard sale years ago. It certainly looks as though the extra velocity in the Hyper-Sonic load is indeed a pattern buster.

On the other hand, the 2 3/4" Sportsman load was able to meet the minimums with the IC choke and exceed it with both modified chokes and the full choke. And, the Hyper-Sonic load didn?t even reach Roster/CONSEP minimum lethal mallard pattern density at 40 yards until I used the full choke.
Lets see how the Hyper-Sonic?s compare to a Remington Sportsman Hi-Speed load that has a comparable payload but at a slower velocity.ġ2 GA 2 3/4" ?

How did they pattern? Well, nothing really impressive from the Hyper-Sonic?s as far as pattern numbers or percentages are concerned.
