  Yes, 120's from Rem 1100 .572 RSF 'lead only'.  Good out to 45 yards for me.  Got high 140's to mid 150's from 7's.

6's will kill birds all day long and believe it or not,you don't have to have 250 or more pellets in a circle to kill a bird

I have had no problem killing the old gobblers with hevi 13 #6.  Figured it couldn't hurt to have a heavier shot going downrange!

Yes, 6's will kill BUT so will the 7's in the Fed HW so why would you not want the most pellets that you can get in the shell AND still have more than enough killing power?  Just doesn't make sense to me to use anything larger than needed.  I guess that is why I shoot TSS 9's.
