Win Lb Xr Trky 12ga 3.5" #6 2oz 10/1

Winchester Longbeard XR Turkey 12 Gauge 3.5" #6 shot ammunition delivers extended-range turkey hunting performance beyond the traditional 40-yard standard. This 2-ounce load features Shot-Lok Technology, a proprietary pellet-binding system that tightens shot patterns and extends effective range to 60 yards—delivering twice the pellet density in a 10-inch circle compared to conventional turkey loads. Available in a 10-round box, this ammunition provides the knockdown power of heavier-than-lead loads at significantly lower cost.

The 3.5-inch magnum case design maximizes powder charge while Shot-Lok technology maintains pellet integrity throughout the barrel and downrange, minimizing energy loss and reducing pattern degradation at distance. The #6 shot size balances penetration with pattern density, making it suitable for typical turkey hunting scenarios from 25 to 60 yards. At 2 ounces, this loading represents the upper end of 12-gauge capacity, delivering sufficient mass and velocity to ethically harvest birds at extended ranges where lighter loads begin losing effectiveness.

Turkey hunters pursuing game in open country or larger properties benefit from the extended-range capability and pattern reliability of Longbeard XR. The ammunition performs particularly well in modern turkey guns with optimized choke systems, where the tight patterns maximize the advantage of Shot-Lok construction. Serious upland and turkey hunters seeking a cost-effective alternative to premium non-toxic loads will find this Winchester offering delivers measurable performance gains without premium pricing.

Winchester Longbeard XR has established itself as a standard-setting turkey load, balancing traditional lead-shot performance with modern pattern technology. The 10-round box format suits both the casual hunter and those stocking ammunition for multiple seasons, with consistent performance across the lineup.
