HEVI-Shot's HEVI-18 TSS Turkey ammunition delivers unparalleled performance for turkey hunters. These 12 gauge, 3 1/2" shells are loaded with 2 1/4 oz of ultra-dense #7 Tungsten Super Shot (TSS), providing high pellet counts and exceptional long-range lethality. With a muzzle velocity of 1250 fps, these shells offer flat trajectories and devastating terminal performance. The unique, friction-free, sealed-in-the-shell spherical buffer ensures incredibly tight patterns, maximizing your effective range on turkeys. HEVI-18 TSS, being 48% more dense than lead, allows hunters to use smaller shot sizes for the same downrange energy, resulting in higher pellet counts and improved performance.
