Well............. got to run a few LBXR #6's through one of my turkey guns this evening................

GOOD HEAVENS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! eek.gif

Just a quick, preliminary trial. Not a lasered 40 yards. 40 of my steps which is likely 42 or 43 yards.

Absolutely DEVASTATING !!!!!!!!!! eek.gif

I have shot more gun, shotshell & choke combinations over the years than I could begin to guess at a count. Tonite's results are considerably better than ANYTHING I've ever seen. The first shot I took was off center and low. But an educated guess is that 90% of the entire pattern was in a 12 inch diameter area. 12 INCHES !!!!!!!!!! At 40 yards !!!!!!!!!! I need to get the measuring disc out and do the actual math, but...........

I've never seen anything like it !!!

Interested in pics and numbers to see how they compare to other loads. Never have too much lead in the circle.

I bought a box this year. My daughter shot her bird with them. It laid the smack down on that bird. We shot 3" #5.

Dr. Woods is sponsored by Winchester so take what you want out of the video but his results compared to another Winchester load were amazing.

Season here is pretty well done, did not ever really get a chance to devote any time to turkey hunting this spring. My 12 gauge shotguns are not chambered for 3.5. Get pretty good patterns with the win hv # 5 turkey loads out of my 1300.

They offer these for 20 gauge?
