Pros and Cons:

Pros

✔ Superior Density: TSS is 22% denser than standard tungsten and 56% denser than lead, maximizing penetration.
✔ High Pellet Count: The #7 TSS shot offers significantly higher pellet counts than traditional lead loads, increasing hit probability.
✔ Extended Range: The combination of TSS and 1100 fps velocity allows for effective turkey hunting at longer distances.
✔ Flitecontrol Flex Wad: Provides tight, consistent patterns through both ported and standard turkey chokes.
✔ Non-Toxic: Meets regulations for non-lead ammunition, making it legal for use in areas with lead restrictions.

Cons

✘ Higher Cost: TSS ammunition is generally more expensive than traditional lead or steel turkey loads.
✘ Recoil: The 1 1/2 oz payload in a 20 gauge can produce significant felt recoil, especially in lighter shotguns.
✘ Overkill for Close Range: The high energy retention of TSS may be excessive for very close range shots, potentially damaging meat.
✘ Limited Versatility: Specialized for turkey hunting, this load may not be ideal for other types of hunting or shooting activities.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What makes Federal Turkey Heavyweight TSS ammunition effective for turkey hunting?

A: Federal Turkey Heavyweight TSS ammunition is highly effective for turkey hunting due to its Tungsten Super Shot (TSS) payload. The #7 TSS pellets have a density 22% higher than standard tungsten and 56% higher than lead, resulting in higher pellet counts, increased energy, and higher velocities at extreme ranges. This allows hunters to effectively take turkeys at longer distances compared to traditional loads.

Q: What is the shot size and weight of this ammunition?

A: This Federal Turkey Heavyweight TSS ammunition uses #7 shot size with a payload weight of 1 1/2 oz. The smaller #7 shot provides a higher pellet count compared to larger shot sizes, while still maintaining the energy needed for ethical turkey harvests at extended ranges.

Q: What is the muzzle velocity of this ammunition?

A: The muzzle velocity of this Federal Turkey Heavyweight TSS 20 gauge ammunition is 1100 feet per second (fps). This high velocity contributes to flatter trajectories and increased energy delivery at longer ranges.

Q: Is this ammunition compatible with all 20 gauge shotguns?

A: While this ammunition is designed for 20 gauge shotguns with 3" chambers, it's important to note that not all 20 gauge shotguns can handle 3" shells. Always check your shotgun's specifications to ensure it can safely fire 3" shells before using this ammunition. Additionally, due to the dense nature of TSS, it's recommended to use chokes specifically designed for turkey hunting with TSS loads.

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

A: Each box of Federal Turkey Heavyweight TSS 20 gauge ammunition contains 5 shells. A full case consists of 10 boxes, totaling 50 shells per case.

Q: Is this ammunition considered non-toxic?

A: Yes, Federal Turkey Heavyweight TSS ammunition is non-toxic. The Tungsten Super Shot (TSS) material used in these shells is lead-free, making it compliant with regulations requiring non-toxic shot for hunting in wetlands or other areas where lead shot is prohibited.
