I patterned my 870 this weekend,
I've been working on this gun for about a year, getting bits and pieces together. This started off as my old Synthetic Stocked 870 express duck gun.
It has a 18.5" fixed I/C barrel, extension is by Scattergun Tech.
Railed Barrel Clamp is a Mesa
Light is a Surefire TRL-1s
I had the Federal F127 laying around, LE132 came from SGammo.com purchased on 11/7/12

Target was a cardboard box 20 steps away. (I'm 6')
Cardboard box is about as wide as a man, and about 5' tall

Two rounds of each were fired from the same distance and location.
(Of note: the TRL-1s came free of the rail on the third shot. It will need to find a new home, not on this shotgun.)
Results:

F127: 13 pellets on target, assuming none went where the wad went. Pattern was about 18"

LE132: I count 18, and about an 8" circle.

The F127 preformed great, but I'm very impressed with the LE132.
