Title: Best lead load
Post by: Browning4140 on February 14, 2017, 11:55:21 AM
Besides Winchester long beard xr, what is the best lead load out. The longbeards are just a little too tight inside of 25yds.

Yep Winchester Double-X seems to be the best I've shot, i'm also a little curious on how the cheap grey box of Winchester SuperX would do?
