Hevi-shot cut open

[ka30270]

I tinker, so I decided to cut open a 20 gauge Hevi-shot Magblend and this is what I found. Makes me wonder why they bother adding buffer......

I had no idea. This is Magblend, would a standard size shot look like that?

yeah,only it would be a little closer to the same size shot but none of it is perfectly round or exactly the same size only close

May not look pretty but it is deadly on turkeys!

Cut open a hand-loaded TSS turkey shell and see what the shot looks like.  Oh, I forgot, you probably already know since you bought the shot and reloaded it. 
I've killed a bunch of gobblers with that ugly Hevi-13 shot, and surprisingly, on gobblers which we have x-rayed, those misshapened and dumbbell pellets were the most devastating regarding tissue damage.

The slag looks ugly but it works. Those tiny snowmen really are devastating.

The best ones have Mickey mouse ears. Lights out for a turkey.

Cut open a Hevi 13 7's. Doesn't look like that scrap metal there. Roundest shot I have seen. I'm leary of all blended shot. You never know what you are getting.

The look of the shot never bothered me with hevi cause it was devastating on ole Tom, only reason I switched to loading my own is so I did not have to worry about what they changed from lot to lot that made my pattern decrease while the price increased.

Makes sense to me...

Yup, I definitely wouldn't be interested in buying it year to year. When the numbers were up with the Hevi 13 3.5 7's I went out and bought a lifetime supply of those and the Hevi 13 3/2/7's, 3/2/6's. Back then they were 16.99-19.99 for the box of 5. My suggestion to people is when you hit the right combo with your gun go out and buy a case of the shells because things change. Also went out and bought 10 boxes of the XX 3/2/6's and 10 boxes of the Win HV 3/ 1 3/4 / 6's.  Right after I did that they confused us all with changing the labels of the shells. The way turkeys are now my boys will have plenty of shells to run through my guns long after I'm gone. This was the first year in 38 years I didn't fire a shot at a turkey. All the Hevi 13 stock I have didn't deplete at all unfortunately.
