I shot the following:

Winchester Suprems, 3.5", 2oz., #5

Hevi-Shot 13, 3.5", 2-1/4oz., both in #5 & 6

The best was the Winchesters, the the Hevi-Shot #5 then the #6
All the shots where taken at 35 yds., all 3 would kill a turkey beyond the 35 yds., but out of the 3 the Winchesters shot the best
I been using the Win. Supremes in 3" with pretty good results. I am using my 18" Accu-Choke barrel with an Undertaker choke tube with my Mossy 500. I am good out to 35 yards and then lose it. However, I limit my shots to about 30 yards anyways. I may get a 24"barrel later, as I would like to try out some sabots for deer hunting. Thanks for the info.
