Ever lost a bird with #7 hevi shot???
#5
I've never used 7's before, but have killed quite a few with 6's and some at long range. I've always been a little Leary of going that small. Last year I shot hevi 13 no 5's and they hit hard! No problem there if I need the range. Killed one at about 38 yards with them.
#7
I had one get away last year, but I won't blame it on the shell! It was the same morning that I had knocked the sight off my shotgun. It was a clean miss.
The ones that did catch the #7's didn't know what hit them. Remember, Hevi's have as much knockdown as lead shot 2 sizes larger. Would you be worried about taking a bird at 50 yards with a tight pattern of lead 5's???
