Got a stoeger 3500 this year. APG, 26" barrel, pistol grip stock with speed bead and vortex venom. Here's my results with the hevi 13 choke with long beard #6, hevi 13 #7, and mag blend 5,6,7.

Long beard at 40


Long beard at 20


Hevi #7 at 40


Hevi #7 at 20


Magblend at 20. My 40 yard shot I pulled real bad and only had 2 blends with me.


Let me know what you guys think, but I'm thinking the hevi 7's get to play this year. Nice even spread at both distances with plenty of shot in the kill zone.

I've been shooting Hevi-shot since 2008 and have always got great penetration out of the pellets. I started with #6s and when the #7s came out I switched to them due to the dense pattern. Lots of friends and family shoot he Magblends and get great results. I believe that the odd pellet shape aides in the penetration, I have shot turkeys and had stray pellets bust through the breast and wing bones. For a #7 to do that is pretty good.

That long beard 20 yards away is scary tight,too easy to miss.
