My hunting friends started using it a couple years ago in 20 gauge, so I figured I’d try it. I’m impressed to say the least. I’m shooting a Franchi Affinity 3.5, Indian Creek .665 choke and Apex 3” #9s. I tried the 3.5” also but the pattern wasn’t much better. Pictured below was at 45 yards off of a sand bag. I think it’ll do!

I’m running the Apex PT 3.5 #9’s, in the 3.5” Mag loads. It’s putting 500 pellets in a 10” circle at 40 yards. I haven’t done a count within a 20” circle yet. Looks like you had great results from your loads too!
My choke is a Star Dot .668
Man you should have joined the turkey challenge, you ain’t far from me.
With 30” barrels on my setup, I’d imagine I’m getting a good powder burn and a bit more hop on the loads, but to be honest, the recoil isn’t all that brutal, even with the 2.5 ounce loads.

and I were discussing that last night as well. The other day, I put 6 or 7 of the Longbeard XR 3.5” loads and 2 more Federal TSS loads through that gun and it wasn’t that bad. I honestly see no need for you to change a thing in your setup. It will kill.
Got some of the Apex #8.5 shot to try in my setup for S&G’s.
