[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5581606, member: 1409"] Similar story here. When those Federal Heavyweight #7s came out, they basically gave my 20 gauges the range (without the recoil) of a 12 ga with #5 lead loads. A friend of mine shot a really big Tom at 46 yds, and those original Federal Heavyweights completely passed thru the breast on that bird (on top of dropping it on the spot). That "sold" me on #7s when "heavier than lead". Then the TSS came out later, and the #9 TSS may out-penetrate those #7 HTLs. TSS has obsoleted any former need for a 10 ga, imo. As had some 3 1/2-inch 12 ga lead (& steel) loads about equaling the 10 ga payloads. [/QUOTE]
