I think I'm calling Monday and getting a .570 for my Express and a .550 non-ported for my JR.  May have to sell my darn 12 gauge to play with all the toys for my 20  ROTFLMBO

holy cow! 175 is the bomb with a factory load like that!!! very nice, and since you didnt have to "deep clean" that barrel, even better!  *bowing*

You may want to shoot 5-10 dove loads to really dirty that barrel and see where it goes.
