Both shots were 40 yards out of dirty barrels. I could have got about 10-15 pellets more out of the heavyweights if I would have moved my circle some. Long beards out of 2 guns today were really impressive! My circles are 11 1/4 in that's what the plate was I used to trace.

The longbeard looks like the shell and choke to hunt with. Would you please tell us what length barrel is on your h&r.? I'd hunt with it any day!     Buford

 :o wow the LB out shot the HW#7's that is impressive , I would hunt with either but being that Fed. discontinued the HW#7's like morons,  I'd hunt with the LB. And I would buy as many as you can because they work so most likely Win. will discontinue them and come out with something that's 5x more expensive. "jmo"  :icon_thumright:

This is good to know. I have been using the Federal HW#7 with the Carlson.575 from my 870 Youth with good results.

I have about four boxes of thee Federals but I did not know they were being discontinued. I bought some Longbeards  on sale after the season to try but I have not shot them yet.
