All Winchesters site is showing in 12 gauge 2 3/4" is #5. At only 1 1/4 ounces of shot it would be nice if they offered a #6 load.

You may have to try the Rooster XR if you want a #4 or #6.

Well, I've purchased so much 2.75" that they all run together in my mind, and it's all up at the farm so there's no way for me to really say what exactly I have! :z-dizzy:
Thanks for thinking of me! :camohat:

I am in same boat.

Wanting to try some 2 3/4" Longbeards and wanting #6 but what I am finding is they are offered in #5 so thinking of some Rooster XR #6 but really don't need those since I have several boxes of #4, #5 & #6 Magnum loads.


Not sure why they would only offer the Longbeard in #5. At only 1 1/4 oz. you think they would offer a #6 load. Also be nice if they were a 1 3/8 oz load.
