Default winchester supremes 3.5 #5s....

holy crap do these mothers kick. they kick almost 2 times as much as the hevishot i was shooting..
my budget pretty low so i switchd from hevi shot to these things...downgrade, but..it gets the job done.

i got 22 pellets in the head and neck at 40 yards..goooood enough.

why do the kick so much more? i can deal with it..but im just wondering why my cheek bones throbbing after 3 shots

Try the limbsaver recoil pad, it did wonders for my 870s kick. The cheek soreness does suck, with my gun if I were to put a cheek pad I wouldn't be able to get low enough for a good sight picture and my shot would go high. I'm seriously thinking about getting some sort of raised sight or maybe a scope just to get my face off of the stock.

i just actually got back from patterning it again. i shot the supremes at 40 yards, and had only 5 pellets in the kill zone. it will kill a turkey..but im looking for better.
i shot my last hevishot 3.5 number 5s at 40 yds and had 64 pellets in the kill zone.

i think im just gunna save up and get another box of hevishot

They kick more because they are being pushed so much faster. 1300fps vs. 1090fps.
