Bamma I think the Federal heavyweight is 33% denser than lead, where the winchester and remington loads are onlr 10% denser. The 10% is similar to the power of ons shot size smaller. So Remmy and Winchester #6 have toe power of #5 lead shot. The Federal is about 2 shot sizes different. So the Federal #7 have the power of lead #5 with alot more pellets on target.
