Title: Heavyweight 6's
Post by: ka30270 on March 21, 2018, 09:08:00 AM
With the Heavyweight 7's being impossible to find and the TSS loads even more rare does anyone have any experience with the Heavyweight 6's? Looks like a pretty good load but I've never shot any.

Thanks

I thought about ordering some myself, but just haven't pushed the "submit order" button yet.

I've been able to hold 110/120 @40yds. TruLock .560 (#7) choke. To me the patterns are very similar to these #6 longbeard patterns. It's 15g/cc looses pattern density between 40/50yds. Not recommending you shoot past 40 because the patterns drop off drastically. But out to 40 for me they will crush as the day is long. I normally do the old school method, run #7 first back up with #6. I have 2/3boxes of the heavyweight #6s. And not scared to shoot them as my main shell. Don't expect the #7 numbers you see folks get but 100+ is easy to get and keep to 40yds. With the #6s
