Default Remington Hevi-Shot

Does anyone out there have any real life experience with Remington' s Hevi-shot in 20 ga. on Turkeys ?
I have read several articles on this new product and they are all very good...almost too good to believe. And you know what they say about being too good to believe.
Remington® Premier® HEVI·SHOT® Magnum Turkey Loads Dominate the 2002 NWTF World Wild Turkey Still-Target Competitions

Madison, NC – Since its introduction last year, Remington Premier HEVI·SHOT Magnum Turkey Loads have brought new meaning to pattern density and down-range high performance. When the nation’s best gathered for bragging rights in Forsyth, Georgia for this year’s NWTF World Wild Turkey Still-Target Competition, it’s no surprise that the majority of the top shooters relied upon Remington Premier HEVI·SHOT Magnum Turkey Loads to provide championship results.

In 2000, HEVI·SHOT product managed to blow away the competition and beat the existing world record by placing an impressive 42 pellets inside a three-inch circle at 40 yards. Again in 2001, HEVI·SHOT loads out-classed the competition by taking top honors in all five major categories of the NWTF competition. Now, in 2002, Remington Premier HEVI·SHOT Magnum Turkey Loads dominated the Still Target Competitions by winning four of the five categories.

Remington Premier HEVI·SHOT Magnum Turkey Loads were used to take the 20 gauge Jakes division, the 20 gauge Women’s division, the 20 gauge Men’s Open division and 12 gauge Hunter class competitions.

The secret to Remington Premier HEVI·SHOT’s superior pattern density and down-range performance is its tungsten-nickel-iron pellet composition and the Remington Premier loading process. HEVI·SHOT pellets are denser than lead, resulting in a 10% heavier pellet that retains more velocity and energy at extended ranges.

Superior results on paper targets, superior performance on real turkeys and superior Remington Premier quality – a true winning combination
Anyway...any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
