Thinking about switching from the mag blends to the 2 1/4 hevi 7's.  Killed 4 birds stone dead from 7 yards, 43 yards, 53 yards and 56 yards with the mag blends last year and love the patterns.  Already patterned with the 7's and yes the patterns are better.  Are the 7's good to mid 50 yard ranges?

They will kill farter than most of us feel comfortable shooting.

Why dont you just go pattern the Mag Blends at 50yds and see if you still have the pattern density you need to take that shot and not change your combo?

Edit-  I see you already killed birds at 53 and 56 yards with the Blends.... you think you'll kill them more dead at that range with the 7's than you did with the Blends?

If Ive got a proven combo at 50yds...Im probably done searching for greener pastures :smiley-char092:

I like the mag blends but the patterns are better with the 7's.  Those mag blends are the hardest kicking shell  :lol: besides a Nitro I have ever fired.
