Went out and fired some of the new Hevi-13 #7's
« on: April 02, 2010, 12:36:35 PM »
Went out yesterday and shot some of the Hevi-13 #7's out of my 870 Express 20 gauge.  I shot at a taped 40 yard distance, in 82 degree weather and shot into a 12mph wind.  It wasn't the greatest weather, but I had to get it done.

I shot these out of an IC .560 with wad catchers.  187 hits in the 10" circle on the first shot and 185 on the second.  I am really impressed with these shells. 



I also shot one out of my Rem SF choke and ended up with and got 158 hits.



This gun will be going to Kansas with me  RkLu  I know I'll be shooting the Hevi-13's instead of the Nitros that this gun was setup for.

You sure do!  It's a love hate relationship feeling I have.  Nitros are made less than 30 minutes from me, but these shells actually patterned better for me overall, cheaper, and a more dense shot...  I hope EM doesn't screw these up!

What are you shooting this Spring?

My SP 20 Ga. Can't get my hands on the Hevi 7's or the Fed. Flitecontrol 7"s. Been using the Hevi 6"s the past couple years so I will keep using them till I can get the 7's.
