I pretty much stick with the 3/2/6's, since they're so popular with the competition shooters.  I'm guessing that would be the last shell EM would want to mess with.

Same here

Benelli sbe 2 with 28" barrel, I.c. .665 choke is devestating with hevi magna blend 3" 5,6,7 I don't get into the number matches or the lot numbers. I find a shell and choke that shoots a great nice pattern at 40 yds and shoots a nice pattern at 20 yds and that's the shell I use. Out of every trueky load I shot out of that gun nothing could match the hevi magna blend 3" 2oz 5,6,7. I have never and never plan on shooting a 3.5 inch shell. My friend gets better patterns out of his set up with Winchester supreme 3" 6 shot it's all in what your gun likes and what meets your approval. I shot bowtech for years, just ordered a new Mathews this year it's what met my approval. I have never shot a Winchester long beard xr shell or any tss fwiw.

I've been shooting the HEVI shells for years. Before that I shot the old Winchester Supremes. I've shot everything from the 3.5 blends in my SBE II to 3 in #6s and #7s in my 11-87. I've never had a problem killing turkeys with any of the HEVI shells. From 10-50 yds they will work.
