The Winchester Long Beard XR STLB12L6 delivers exceptional pattern density and extended range for turkey hunting through innovative Shot-Lok technology. This 12-gauge ammunition transforms standard lead shot into a cohesive mass that breaks apart upon impact, maintaining tight patterns at distances where conventional loads fail.
What Makes This Different
Shot-Lok technology bonds lead shot together with a specialized resin, creating a protective barrier that prevents pellet deformation during acceleration. Standard turkey loads lose pattern density beyond 40 yards due to shot deformation and flyer pellets. The Long Beard XR maintains 10% tighter patterns at 60 yards compared to conventional ammunition, extending effective range by 5-10 yards over traditional turkey loads.Key Features
