On average, how do the hevi shot 3" mag blends compare to the hevi 3" 6s? I couldn't find much with the search feature so figured I'd ask here. I shoot the 6s now and have been very pleased with them for three seasons, shot a sackful of gobblers with them that were dead before they hit the ground. I've always been a little curious about the mag blends though. I know every choke/load/gun combo varies, but on average how do they compare to the straight 6s? Thanks.

Tail Feathers

I shoot the 3.5's but in my rather limited comparison, Mag Blends beat straight 6's by about 20% or more holes in a 10" circle at 40 yards.
With my gun and choke, it means 160-ish numbers vs. 200-ish numbers.
Love to hunt the King of Spring!

Stick with the straight 6's or 7's the Mag blends I've experienced numbers were a good bit less
