Saw where you had posted that on VA turkey, glad to see Federal can still make a good lead load.  How does the blue box compare?

Looks good to me. Ill Be trying the turkey thugs 3'' #6's and the #5's tomorrow. I had nothing but good reviews about those shells as far as lead shot goes.

I picked up a box of 3" number 6 today myself to try.
What's to loose? 10.00 is a pretty small investment either way.
