Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What makes the HEVI-Shot Magnum Blend Turkey ammunition unique?

A: The HEVI-Shot Magnum Blend Turkey ammunition is unique due to its blend of #5, #6, and #7 shot sizes in a single shell. This combination creates a dense pattern with increased pellet count, providing excellent lethality at various ranges. The tungsten-based shot is also denser than lead, allowing for deeper penetration and cleaner kills.

Q: What is the effective range of this turkey load?

A: The HEVI-Shot Magnum Blend Turkey load is effective out to 66 yards. The combination of shot sizes and the high density of the tungsten-based pellets contributes to maintaining lethal energy at extended ranges, making it an excellent choice for turkey hunters who need reliable performance at longer distances.

Q: Is this ammunition safe to use in all 20 gauge shotguns?

A: While this ammunition is designed for 20 gauge shotguns with 3-inch chambers, it's important to ensure your shotgun is rated for high-performance turkey loads. The 1200 fps velocity and dense tungsten-based shot can create higher pressures than standard loads. Always consult your shotgun's manual or a gunsmith to confirm compatibility before use.

Q: How does the recoil of this turkey load compare to standard 20 gauge loads?

A: Due to its 3-inch length, 1 1/4 oz payload, and 1200 fps velocity, this turkey load will produce more recoil than standard 20 gauge field loads. Hunters should be prepared for increased felt recoil, especially in lighter shotguns. Proper shooting technique and recoil-reducing accessories can help manage the additional recoil.

Q: How many shells come in a box and case of this ammunition?

A: Each box of HEVI-Shot Magnum Blend Turkey ammunition contains 5 shells. A full case consists of 10 boxes, for a total of 50 shells per case.

Q: Is this ammunition legal for turkey hunting in all states?

A: While the tungsten-based shot in this ammunition is legal for turkey hunting in most areas, hunters should always check local regulations before use. Some states may have specific requirements regarding shot size or non-toxic shot use. Always verify current hunting regulations in your specific hunting area.
