HEVI-Shot HS19006 HEVI-Bismuth Waterfowl .410 Bore 3" 9/16oz #6 1300 fps

A: HEVI-Shot HEVI-Bismuth Waterfowl ammunition for .410 bore is unique due to its bismuth shot, which is 22% denser than steel. This allows hunters to use a smaller shot size (#6) while maintaining effective lethality. The 3" shell length and 9/16 oz payload provide improved performance in the compact .410 bore, making it an excellent choice for waterfowl hunting with smaller gauge shotguns.

A: Yes, HEVI-Shot HEVI-Bismuth ammunition is safe for use in both modern and classic shotguns. Unlike steel shot, bismuth is softer and won't damage older barrels or chokes, making it an ideal choice for hunters using vintage or heirloom .410 bore shotguns for waterfowl hunting.

A: The HEVI-Shot HEVI-Bismuth Waterfowl .410 Bore ammunition has a muzzle velocity of 1300 feet per second (FPS). This high velocity, combined with the density of bismuth shot, provides excellent downrange performance and lethality for waterfowl hunting.

A: Each box of HEVI-Shot HEVI-Bismuth Waterfowl .410 Bore ammunition contains 25 shells. A full case consists of 10 boxes, totaling 250 shells per case.

A: Using #6 shot in this HEVI-Bismuth load for .410 bore offers several advantages. The smaller shot size provides a denser pattern, which is crucial for the smaller payload of a .410 bore. Additionally, the higher density of bismuth compared to steel allows the #6 shot to maintain energy and lethality at longer ranges, making it effective for waterfowl hunting despite the smaller gauge.

A: While primarily designed for waterfowl, HEVI-Shot HEVI-Bismuth .410 Bore ammunition is also excellent for upland game hunting. The #6 shot size and bismuth composition make it versatile for various small game species. It's particularly useful in areas where lead shot is prohibited but steel shot is not required, offering a high-performance alternative for ethical and effective hunting.
