I'm looking to buy a box of long beards. If anyone happens to run across a box let me know please. Also, if anyone has a box laying around they don't need let me know. I only have a few shells left lol.

Don't think you're settling to shoot 12 ga 3" #6 if you can't get 3.5". They pattern really well for me and outshot some premium 3.5" loads.

Typically the new batch of those shells come out right before season. I ordered some about a month ago to be safe. Just checked and they are gone now. Might have to switch over to TSS.
I just found some Magnum blends. They had two boxes left and i bought both lol.
Was in Sportsman's Warehouse in Murfreesboro today and looked. They had some magnum blends but no Winchester Longbeard XR's.

I just looked and Bass Pro has some 5 shot. Order them online. I got some from them a few weeks ago.
Has anyone ever run a side by side comparison of Hevi Mag Blends vs LB 6 shot?

Well....sorry. I just checked again and now they are showing out of stock.
I will do that test. I have a few Long Beards left and i just bought 2 boxes of magnums. I'm curious as well.
They have 3.5 #5 in stock. Get it now before they run out.

Thanks Jbbivens! I was able snag a box before they were gone. Looks like they still have more.
I have 4 or 5 boxes of 3.5's. I usually shoot #5's but picked up some #6's at a pawn shop a few weeks ago. I am usually fortunate to not shoot a long ways (not by skill but by thick timber) so I figure they'll do just as fine. If you're in need of some I can figure out a way to get you a box. Never shipped ammo so not sure what they regs are on it. Just shoot me a PM if you want.
