I don't know a whole lot about the heavy shot, but I do no some folks that use the Winchester 3" #5 Super Pheasant loads for turkeys in a 20 and have good performance. |

Any word on the 20 ga. Hevi Shot?
I am using the Winchester Supreme in my daughter's gun, but I would like something that patterns better.

I 'm in the same boat. they didn't pattern like i would have liked. I just put the jelly head choke in it and was gonna give the heavi's a go. I'll try and pic some up this week and see how they shoot. My daughter doesn't live with me.So I'll try them and maybe another,and see what happens.  |

Each gun will pattern different depending on load and choke combination. My daughter uses a 20 ga. as well. The results are for a 20 ga. youth 870 with a primos jelly head. I have tested many brands and the two brands that have the best pattern for her gun are Winchester Xtended Range Hi-Density 3" #5 1 1/8 oz. and the Kent Ultimate Diamond Shot 3" #6 1 1/4 oz. The Kent has a better pattern at 30 yards but it does have more shot as well. The Kent will not carry the KE (due to shot size) as well as the Winchester either. But the Winchester hits the shoulder a little bit harder that the Kent.

Kents I don't think anyone carries them around here? Maybe I just overlooked them? I will get the win ext range when i get mine. I thought about them because I use them with no complaints. So i'll get enough different manufactured loads to make some holes. ;D . See what will smash the turkeys face so to speak! ;D |

Well I just ordered a couple boxes of the 20 ga. Hevi Shot Magnum Blends 5.6.7 to test in my daughter's Mossy with an UnderTaker choke. I will post the results in a week or so.
