Title: Longbeard #5's
Post by: Will_price on March 19, 2015, 11:31:14 AM
Got some Longbeard shells for Christmas and shot them yesterday. The things are unreal! I had 5 magnum blends in my vest, but I think they'll be riding the pine this year!

Those longbeards shoot awesome! Without a doubt in my mind the best lead shell on the market. Ill be shooting 3.5" #6 longbeards this spring.

I patterned  one last week out of a RR .655 and shot 270 in the 20 out to 50 yards. Pretty dang good for lead

I'm using the 3" #5's this season.  So far so good, one shot one kill through some heavy brush.

Mossberg 835 with a .670 SSX choke.  I didn't count pellets when I was patterning it but I was impressed with it.
