I switched from Rem. HeviShot & Win. HV to the Win XR this year (3" #5) and have never had such great patterns and density. Sounds like your gun is a real turkey killer w/ those results!

Sounds like a heck of a setup. I'm hoping that Winchester comes out with a 20 gauge load by next year with the Xtended Range. While I'm hoping I would like to see Hevi-Shot come out with a 20 gauge Hevi 13 load also.

Congrats Kevin on getting the monkey off your back today. Those Win Hi Velocities hit their mark it seems! Those creek bottoms on windy days can produce a bird or two. Scott and I'll be hitting the woods again tomorrow. Another one of those dreary, overcast days according to the weatherman. Those days have been good to us thus far.
