Well for me it's an affordable alternative to heavy shot shells. I can kill 30 turkeys to the 10 I could get with the Hevi-13 for the same price. Penetration? So what? Dead is dead given 40 yards and under. And it shoots better..... No brainer to me.
It all makes the world go round.

Dead is dead.....don't see any reason to shoot anything but XR's

From from what am reading size for size XR's do not out penetrate Hevishot. But at nominal ranges the XR's do penetrate very well. I am going to buy some and shoot the. One thing I find is the statements of how dead is dead. Ya'll all right dead is dead. So why do folks still say my way of killing turkeys is best.
