Is hevi #6 equal to lead # 5. I though about going with hevi 13 # 5 but think extra pellets in #6 will be more beneficial. Hevi shot is too expensive to try all combinations so I want to try most recommended vs lead first. Would like to hear from people with experience with these combos.
I get better patterns with heavy 13 #6 than I do with the #5. That is out of my Nova so your results will vary. I still prefer the Magblend out of my set up.
