A friend of mine who is a fanatic turkey hunter switched from lead to Hevi Shot because he got better patterns and more range. He tested a whole bunch of different lead, Hevi Shot, and Bismuth loads on the pattern board.
He's shooting a 12 gauge 3 1/2 inch Benelli (I think), and claims the Hevi Shot is a legitimate 65 yard turkey killer.
I'm not certain what size shot he's using.
