I keep reading how much guys like Nitro turkey loads. Are these Remington turkey loads or some other manufacturer? Did a google search and found a Nitro Company but curious if it is the Remington Nitro's that have the big following. Thanks
Most are referring to handloads from Nitro Company.
That's what I thought might be the case! Is it this company?

That's the one. I shoot them some. You should know some have tested pretty high on pressure and several folks have had hulls stick in the chamber and not eject which is a sign of high pressure. That said, a lot of guys shoot them and get impressive results. I would try the Hevishot first. They are much cheaper and do great for many setups. Also the Xtended Range Winchesters are bad medicine for turkeys.
Thanks! I like the Winchester Supreme 3.5" #5s - mostly because of the price and I have had no problems with turkeys @ 40-45 yds. I bought a box of 3.5" #6 Hevi-shot this spring in case I hunted a refuge in Kansas that required non-toxic, but ended up filling out before I hunted there. Guess I'll stick to what works for me so far. Thanks again!! :z-guntootsmiley:
i really like the win. extended range #6's
i believe they are a little bit cheaper also
There is a place here in Birmingham that sells them. You can get them 12GA 3.5", 2 7/16oz. :lol: Like taking a tank to a knife fight.
Those are great shells and you won't be disappointed.
Nitro Company shells are probably the best patterning shells in the market.
The heavishot loads are gaining quite the following as well, and much cheaper.
I've never tried the Nitro company shells, but I can honestly say that I have never heard anyone say anything bad about them. Everyone I know that shoots them swears by them. With that said though, I shoot the Hevi13's they are plenty good for me and cheaper.
I love the remington nitro 5s it really puts them down.
Those shells are awesome but hard to find. Lately i have some problems with them, the sealant that is at the exit of the shell is coming loose.

I am hearin that more and more. I keep hearing that they are impossible to get on the phone, and there ordering system is Pre-Historic. It's to bad because from what I hear they are awesome shells.

The first ting that I do when I get a box of them is to reseal the shells myself. In the Nitros and hevishot that I have gotten. I do not trust either of their sealent methods
They do a great job, I just finishing doing some testing with a new gun and the patterns are amazing. As stated their service needs improving but they are a very small company. If you can order in late fall or early Jan you will get better results.
I have shot them for a loooong time and I have always ordered them by phone. I have always got them to answer and got my shells pretty quick. Friendly service too. But you can not wait until the week before season and try to order, unless you want to shoot something else.
Good Luck and God Bless

just send them an e-mail of what you want and a cell phone number. They will contact you. Been doin it this way for years.

:agreed: If you can afford them and dont reload your own you cant beat them.
I have ordered from them countless times , the best way is e-mail or mail them with funds and the ammo shows up like always -- just order early
I have shot them for the last three or four years they are awesome shells. I just ordered some two weeks ago and they came in quick!
talk to them today and she said they were starting to get real busy so dont wait and you wont have a problem
