I have found a local sporting good stores that has about 5 of the 10 round boxes of the 3.5 inch and 1 7/8 oz #6s in federal heavyweight.  I can pick these up for a good price but I am not sure how they would shoot cause I know that I have not seen the best results for these shells in the 12 gauge. I would rather have the 7s but for that deal I feel like it might me worth trying the 6s. Any thoughts on this or any experience with the 6s?

I can tell you they will absolutely crush a bird...if you can find a choke combo that you like...hard to beat 10 bucks per box for good HTL loads
shoot first, measure spurs later

They are no good.  PM me what store that is and I'll be sure to warn everyone.

For that price don't wait a minute go back and grab every box. They also make a heck of a goose load.

Get them all, if they do not pattern for turkey they will surely crush some decoying geese and any ducks  you want to shoot!!!

Sounds like i will be going to pick these up then. Just need to find a choke for them. What chokes are some of yall shooting this load out of? I have heard the wrights .650 shoots these well but apparently they are hard to come by.

if you don't want these HW6's, PM me the info because I do...buy them all would be my advice to you and dont worry too much about the pellet count compared to the Hevi numbers as these are killers.
