Anyone noticing a big difference with this. I am getting about a 10-12" drop on the Hevi13 #6 and #7 vs Longbeard #6. All 3" shells.

I would expect the POI to be different between lead and HTL just because of the weight difference and the effect of gravity on the shot once it leaves the barrel. Not sure about 10-12" though. How fast are the shells between the lead and HTL? That might be your answer.

It is definitely like a science project. My Xtrema 2 that is sighted in with Hevi 13 3.5 7's shoots to the right with Hevi 13 3" and 3.5" 6's. Must be a different wad or some sort of barrel harmonics.

3" hevi 7's, 3" Win HV #6's and 3" LB 6's are same/same from my 21" 870.
3" HW 7's and 3" H13 6's are high/low from my 21" 870 20 gauge.
