I'm a real fan of all Hevi-shot products for all larger birds, especially turkeys in the spring. Their 6s are deadly on head shots and I like the birds at 25-30 yards when shooting a tube designed for the stuff. Shoot 4s at geese. Was reloading the regular Hevi-shot for the big guns until the shot got to $170/10 lbs. Now it's cheaper to buy it already loaded. I'd rather shoot one expensive shell and get the bird instead of two cheaper ones and lose him to the scavengers miles away. I can't tell you how many goose doubles with one shot I have made with Hevi-shot, shooting at one bird and in addition to it another beside it falls. Never had that happen with steel in all the years of using it.
