I am a winchester guy.  I started out shooting the HV's when I was younger and when the XR came out switched to those.  I have had nothing but good results with the XR they have flattened all the birds I have pulled the trigger on.  If you are looking for #s the hevi shot will more than likely come out on top.

I shot XRs for several years until I tested XR 5's, XR 6's, Hevi 6's, and Hevi Magblends. The Hevis blow the XRs away in my 870. I'm talking about 100 more hits in 10 @ 40 with Hevi 6's vs. XR 6's.

The Winchesters sure seem to hit hard....I've killed a few birds with them and have no complaints...I mean they flat out pack a punch...the Hevi 13 out patterned them in my gun though.

.....  I don't know about the rest of you but around here I can find a box of Ext. Range fairly easily but I have to order the Hevis......   

Your area must end up with all the XR's then. All I can find here is Hevi and no Winny XR.  :z-dizzy:
