A Kick's .655 will probably pattern best w/ smaller diameter shot.  I would buy both Hevi-13, 3", 2oz. #6 and #7, but if I was going to buy only one size shot, I'd go w/ the 7's.  Good luck.

I would take his advice and go with the Hevi 2 ounce load of #7's.  I'm shooting that shell in my Benelli M1 thru a Kick's .655 and averaging 275 pellets in a 10" circle at 40 yards.
