Yes. Shoot them love them. They are bad ---! Depends on how your gun shoots them also though. I shoot them out of a 20ga 870 with a jelly head. They pattern the best that i have found. I also shoot them out of a 11-87 with a custom choke Brutal is all i can say.

ive always shot nitros. i shoot 12g 3" #4s, through a jellyhead. i absolutely love them. I can shoot out around 70 yards with them but thats when the pattern starts fading out.

25 to 35 yards??????? The nitros are going to surpass deadly! They are super loads....I plan on shooting some this year that I have left over from last year....got a box of flight control #6's a few days ago for my 10...but I will shoot the nitros over the federals any day!

I have a buddy who shoots Nitro 4x5x7 and they are unreal!

BUT, I personally shoot H-13 3-1/2" 2-1/4" #6 and they throw an awesome pattern. If price is not an option go with Nitro. If not, go with the H-13 or Win. X-tended Range.
