I'm curious as to what kind of a shot string one gets in a duplex load when using shots similar in size but drastically different in weight. Especially at longer ranges.


Theoretically that shouldn't be an issue with Hevi Metal, as the pellets are different in size, but similar in weight.

I switched from Winchester supremes @ $16 a box to Kent ultimate diamond loads for $7 a box three seasons ago and have not looked back. I rolled a gobbler at 50 yards in an open winter wheat field last year. Normally I wouldn't try a shot that far, but after patterning my shotgun at 50 and destroying a water bottle from 50 I was very confident if 50 was all i was going to get, I was going to take it. Kent turkey loads are pretty awesome if you guys have not tried them.
