Hevi-Shot patterns better than lead as is denser than lead. Using Hevi-Shot is like a Win, Win, Lose situation. You win on pattern density and killing power, but lose on price. Then again, if you were shooting lead you probably would have spent the rest of the day chasing a wounded turkey around the woods, or you would still be out hunting for a turkey. Sometimes, it pays to use the more expensive stuff. Plus, with turkey hunting the cost doesn't factor in quite as much because you aren't shooting hundreds of rounds in a season like waterfowling.
