This except mine liked the hevi 6's better

[youngun15]

JH or Tightwad .660 hevi 6 or 7

[870supermagnum]

Jelly Head .660 and Hevi 13 or Winchester Supreme Elite Extended Range, in #6 or 7.

[Gooserbat]

I'm a lead-head so Winchester #6 lead of about any flavor and Sumtoy

[chad0285]

Sounds good. These are the options I was leaning towards.

[bushwhacker]

Jellyhead .665 and Winchester HV 3.5-2-5's or 6's

[Erich Williams]

My 870 has a 28" barrel and im shooting 180s with Hevi-13 7s with a .665 Sumtoy

Sounds like you should try a different choke.  250 or more is more like the norm.

The day I was there at William's it was about 35 degrees and raining... I haven't shot it since because it hasn't quit raining here in Savannah yet

I myself have had the best luck from the MAD Super Max .675 choke I bought off gunbroker for like $30 shipped.  It shoots the Hevi-13 3" # 7 loads very well.  Awesome 10" and 20" patterns.   




Here's a better closeup of the 10" pattern.

[Erich Williams]

Yeah that choke seems to throw em pretty dang good! You got the 28 barrel on yours?

[ILIKEHEVI-13]

Even at 45 degrees that choke will still do 230 in the 10" which is pretty good for that coll of temp.
