Heavy 13 Mag Blend or Heavy 13 #6's??

[ckhawkeye51]

Plan on shooting a Jelly Head .670 out of my Browning Maxus. What shell should I use Mag Blend or Heavy Shot #6's. Both of these shells will be in 3 1/2 inch.

The only way to know for sure what will work best is to try them both, or other shells for that matter, out of your gun.  I good starting point would be to search this site and look at other's patterns with your combo.  That is what I did before I bought shells in college.  I was too broke to try a bunch of different ones.  There are so many pattern pics on this site that you should be able to find something.  Just a starting point.

The Hevi #7's should throw a wicked pattern from that combination.

Put "Mag blend" in the search box..All kinds of topics come up on Hevi shot and choke combos. You could spend hours reading.

I'd go 6's over the mag blend. I played with the MB and it seems like it's 90% plus of 7 shot in the target, but without the high 7 like numbers. I'm hunting with the straight 7's this year.

I shoot both in 3.5".

I will go with the straight 6's or even 5's if I think a long shot is possible.

Out to 40, both are pretty good...

I'd go with the hevi 6 shot

I shoot both but with a  835 and I prefer mag blend, but if the patterns are similar I would use the mag blend over the 6 shot.
