Default hevishot question

i THINK that i will give this stuff a try this spring, but am a little confused about the product.
i have found info on this product on sites such as nitro, hevishot and remington. the nitro site is the only one i see were a variety of shot sizes are available, including multiple shot size combos. they are using copper plated lead combined with hevishot and such. they offer high or standard velocities.
the hevishot and remington site offer their loads in 2,4,6' s in standard and high velocity.
does anyone have any experience with any of these loads?
doesn' t the nitro combo load sort of defeat the hevishot philosophy if 2/3 of their load is standard lead?
how can nitro justify 4$ per round?
i currently shoot 3" 6' s out of my 870 using the superfull(.665) choke tube and absolutley love the pattern it gives me. i am looking to pattern a box of 3" 6' s of hevishot with the same setup, but after reading these different sites, am wondering if there is a better load to try.
any insight would be greatly appreciated, seeing that i am gleeming over my successful response to my permit today..lol
