My favorite was Winchester Supreme HV 12 ga. 3" 1 3/4 oz. and 3.5" 2 oz. #6 shot. They are still my favorites.  Winchester changed the name to Double X but it's the same shot shell.  They work very well.  No reason to change IMO.

Federal 3/2/6's  3/2/5's
Winchester XX 3" 5's and 6's.  Several different ounce loads.

Before Hevi and LB we just called them inside 30yds and killed just as many turkeys back then as we do now.

Winchester Supreme 3" loaded in the red hull, 2 oz. #5. 

[SteelerFan]

Federal Premium 3" 2 oz. copper plated 6's. I thought these were the ticket! (killed quite a few birds with them)

[mikejd]

Winchester supremes #4's.

Hard for me to remember what I shot back then, I started shooting hevishot back in 2004 when Remington was making it. I think they were Winchester supremes

Federal premium 3 inch 2oz copper plated in both 5s and 6s.
One awesome lead load. I would still likely shoot them today if they still made them.
