I'm not sure why they only load #4's and #5's.  Even if they're dirt cheap, shipping costs will jack up the price, and I doubt they'll be a huge improvement over locally available Win HV #5's or even Win XX #5's OR #6's.  Maybe I'm wrong...

You know why they use just #4 & #5 lead..  ;) gotta have them big holes to kill turkeys. They are just following the market. I cut my teeth on some Win #5 xx.
