Winchester Long Beard XR 12 GA #5-Shot 10-Rounds 3" 50th Anniversary Edition

Excellent turkey load, especially when used in conjunction with the Carlson Longbeard XR Choke. Killed three this year at 47, 55, and 62yds

I have used Winchester XR shot shells for the past 12 years in my Remington 11-87 special purpose shotgun. I’ve found them to be consistently effective on gobblers out to at least 50 yards when using the Carlson choke specifically designed for the XRs. I recommend using them if you are looking for a reasonably priced shotgun shell for Turkey hunting. You will not be disappointed!

I bought them for the NWTF 50th anniversary box but will definitely use them on a Longbeard next spring. When it comes to lead(led) , there is no beating LongBeard XR

Absolutely love these shells. Wish they had the 3 1/2 inch. Cabela's put a big price sticker on the front of the box ruining the collectability of it.

When paired with the Longbeard choke, the 3" #5's pattern better than any choke and shell I've ever used. At 50 yards, it put about 50 pellets into the neck and head of a turkey target. In a Winchester SXP, it patterned amazing, but the trigger on that gun is 8 lbs. which make it very dificult to shoot accurately, which is needed at longer range.
