Seems my loads (win supreme high velocity) have been replaced by "double x" loads. Thy have the same specs but I haven't shot or bought any yet. Has anyone switched from the supreme to the double x loads and noticed a difference in POI or pattern? I'm hoping they shoot the same because I've killed all my turkeys with the win supreme loads and wasn't wanting to change.

Just a name change I believe.  What used to be the "Double X", isn't being produced now.  The new "Double x" has the same specs of what used be called "High Velocity".

Thanks. I don't shoot HTL rounds, can't justify the price when the lead loads have done the job very well for me. Ill buy a box of the double x and see how they shoot.

They just don't package them under the supreme name anymore. Same shells in a new box design. They also still make the old double x 3.5-2.25 and 3-2 loads too. Walmart just doesn't carry them, they only carry the high velocity loads.
