Anybody using them what's the effective range of them I know they look good on paper
Nope! Do not use them. They won't work. :lol
I had to be one of the nay sayers who never tried them. Well actually I was one of the doubting Thomas's.
But read this and see for yourself. I have been converted and am now a Hevi-13 certified shooter. :lol:

You know if all the doubters and the 6 shot users only would just give the 7's a go, it would just be a matter of time before this stuff took over as the most popular Hevi-Shot turkey loads. Heck it already is the second most popular load I do believe.
Yes I have killed birds at 55 yards using 7s
I have no doubt I could kill a bird at 60
cant wait to use them this year :z-guntootsmiley:
I'm using all 8 or 9 from now on.
They are the real deal. They will kill a turkey a lot farther than most shooters have any business trying a shot.

Regulars on this forum know that you are referring to TSS 8s and 9s. But for the sake of any folks out there reading this that are new to turkey hunting, don't you think it would be a good idea to mention that so they don't go out and try to kill turkeys with skeet loads?
:TooFunny:
I can tell you the Federal Heviweight #7 are the real deal. Smoked a gobbler in Ny last year at 35ish. and I blowed the $hit out of him. I have never killed a bird (yet) with the Hevi #7 though. Might just give them a test ride this spring, my 11-87 3" puts down some good numbers at 40 with the Hevi's.
I will keep you posted....
Nitro 7's, Fed 7'S, Em 7's,
Awful lot of 7's
There was some guys around here last year, that killed some hogs with the Federal 7's while turkey hunting. Said it dropped them like a sack of taters.
The 7s are the next evolution of turkey shells. Throwing that many pellets in that tight of a pattern = destruction.
