should i save my money and wait?

[snapper1982]

i was thinking about trying the h 13 this year as i am currently using lead. i have no problems with it, good patterns and tag out on birds. but with all the hype thought i would switch. but now reading all the bad about h13 this year. i was wondering. should i save my money and kill my birds with lead and see if h13 gets things fixed for next year?

I say give it a shot, it's only money and time.  I've had good luck with this years Hevi's.  Unless you consider 280 in a 10" at 40 yards bad and hope hevi fixes their shells.....

if your gettin good killin patterns with lead save your money, Envrio metal's "H-13" quality control is just about as bad as i have seen. just my op.

I'm of the same opinion as nyhunter. If lead is doing the job stick with it. The $$ you save over the cost of the INCONSISTENT Hevi13™ can be used for gas. If you wish to try HTL loads look at Federal® Heavyweight®, Remington Wingmaster HD®, or Winchester® Xtended Range®.

 If you dont like it you can always go back to what you had before!!!! Or do like I'm going to do start reloading your own so you dont have to worry about inconsistencies!!!!!!!!!

[snapper1982]

I am shooting current production Hevi-13 shells and seeing patterns that are as good as any I've seen. I can only speak from my personal experience but I'm still buying those shells.

Thanks,

I am not going to make any more moves this year.  Some are saying that Winchester® Xtended Range® is patterning similar to H13 Lot# 300488.

I am going to wait and see what Federal® Heavyweight®, Remington Wingmaster HD®, and Winchester® Xtended Range® offer in 2012.

I HAVE BEEN TOLD ITS ONLY THE 3 1/2 " SHELLS THAT ARE DIFFERENT. I SHOT 3" HEVI 7 SHOT THROUGH MY MOSS 835 WITH IC CHOKE AND GOT 179 IN A 10" AT 40 YDS.. IF YOUR LEAD IS SHOOTIN GOOD .....? THE BIRDS DONT CARE WHAT KIND OF PELLET KILLS THEM

[surehuntsalot]

your lead is killing them why change?
stick with what is working for you,save your money,their not worth it

While it's only my personal opinion, but a lot of hunters/shooters, especially dedicated 20ga guys like us; feel this way.
