I like the Federal Shells- I have shot 3" and 31/2" shells in 5 and 6. Currently I am shooting a #6 3" shell.

I am shooting the hevi 13 7's 3 inch in 2 oz shot in my benelli nova. Finally found a good combo. Got 246 in a 10 inch circle at 40 yards.
Also got 146 in a 10 inch circle with my sons 20 gauge with the hevi 13 7's.

I've only used Win Super X 3" #5s. I bought 2 boxes of 10 a few years ago. I patterned with 3 shots, and have only shot at turkeys since. I have 8 shells left, and at the rate I'm going I won't need new shells until 2017.

Heavy 13 # 6's, Rhino Choke tube, Benelli Nova 12.ga. Also like the Magnum blend, but the sraight 6's shoot better out of my setup.

Remington Nitro #5 3.5 in. Winchester High Velocity #5 3.5 in. (Black Hull) I don't believe you need to spend a fortune to kill birds. I have taken birds out to 40 with both and my son busted one a click farther than 50 with a Nitro. I tried Hevy shot and my gun hated it but my buddy swears by it so obviously its all what the gun likes.

10point, did you see on the Kicks web site that is says hevi shot is not recommended for use out of Kicks chokes. You might look into that I dont want anything to happen. I dont know if they mean the hevi 13 or not, just thought it might be looking into.

Plain old Federals, 20 gage, 23/4", 7/8 oz, #7.5 shot. It patterns an apple at 30 yards with that load, a grapefruit at 40, and puts at least 100 pellets into the kill zone in a pattern dense enough to shear his head off .

I dont know if they mean the hevi 13 or not, just thought it might be looking into. I have done a lot of research on it and feel pretty comfortable as they say you can shoot the Nitro hevi loads. |
