Looking forward to trying H-18 out!

There has been some press on IG about it already...

What's IG ?

When it comes to lot numbers, most of us went through the changing of components with Hevi-13.  There were some lots that put up OUTSTANDING numbers and some that were just average.  So when it comes to Hevi and the manufacturing process, Lot numbers were a BIG deal.  Will we see that with the 18 offering, only TIME will tell.

Good to see another option

As for me, I'll stick with the Hevi 13 #7's out of my 835.  They haven't let me down(and I have plenty) so no need to change.  I'm not going to spend $10 per shell to kill a bird at 25 yards when a $5 shell will do the trick LOL.  I hope they plan on loading #9's in their offerings.
Wonder if someone should be buying the hevi 13 and stocking up?
Once the new loads hit the old stuff may go away.

It's hard for me to get away from the Mag Blends. My 870 loves them just as much as a 3 inch tss #9. At 40 yards, the pellet count differed by 2 pellets.

Dang that would be a heck of a magblend pattern. Do you know/remember  the 10" count at 40 ?

What lot number should we search for?

867-5309

Why would you post that? Now, all I can think is

Jenny jenny who can I turn to
You give me something I can hold on to
I know you'll think I'm like the others before
Who saw your name and number on the wall
Jenny I've got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny don't change your number
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine

Tail Feathers

I have enough Federal HW 7's to get me thru a few more seasons (unless I get real luck and into a lot of birds every year).  I have some Apex and they pattern great, but I feel silly taking them on a hunt where my shots are all under 40.
Love to hunt the King of Spring!
