Old Federal Premium 3-2-5s

[PALongspur]

Just shot a few of these this past weekend. They still impress me! Wish I could find a few boxes!

[I call it maize]

I have one shell left of the 3/2/6's out the box I killed my first turkey with...back in the day I never even thought to 'pattern' my gun. I just went out and pulled my grand dad's 1100's trigger and it was over.

Reflexl and surehuntsalot , I hope you are right. I'm going to try them in my Benelli Super Black Eagle with an old Lohman .650 " Long Shot " choke tube. I may also try them in my Rem. 870 with a Remington .655 " Ventilator " choke tube.

A Mossberg 835 with a Lohman Long Shot and Fed 3.5" #5s was responsible for quite a few of my birds back in the day. I gave the choke to a friend a while back but still have a full box of those shells in the bottom of my gun cabinet.

Should shoot goodout of the Venviolator and 870, I shot that combo for a while.

I still have my long shot tube and a CASE of the old fed prem 3.5/2/6 loads.  Same combo I killed over half of my birds with the last 25 years.
