Title: Looking for 10 ga. Supreme #6s
Post by: nbkillr on March 14, 2013, 12:47:46 PM
All I can find is #5s and #4s.  Did Winchester quit making them in #6s?  Any help would be appreciated.

Good luck finding them and if you do please let me know. My H&R loves them and I only have 4 more of them. I tried xx 6s and they are not even in the same ballpark ??? I am going to try some federals soon. I willlet you know how they do.

I know the feeling, I have less than a box left.  I have been looking every where I can for them. Looks like I am SOL.

Best option is upgrade to heviweights or hevi shot, but again smaller than 5 is hard to find.  OG posted a link to one place that still had 7's in federal heviweights, believe they were 30 a box of 5.  Figuring that once they were gone they were gone forever, I went with Nitros so I can repeat what I shoot.

I bought 4 boxes of federal high velocity 5's from Rodgers with the old wad.  They are on sale for 6.99 a box.

I wanted to try the heavys but I have a kicks goblin thunder 680 and kicks says not to  use it. So to be safe I am sticking with lead till I run out only 4 left. Then I am going to try some federal 6s lead or winchester supreme 5s. Only time will tell who knows I might get 5 or 6 years out of them 4 shells :( :(

I don't know if they have been discontinued, but when the price goes up on a shell and not others, I get suspicious.
