Federal Heavyweight TSS Shotshells

Tungsten is significantly denser than lead, which allows for smaller shot sizes that retain more velocity and energy at longer ranges. This density provides deeper penetration and more consistent patterns, making it highly effective for ethical turkey hunting.

These shells are designed for standard .410 bore shotguns, but you should always verify that your specific firearm is chambered for 3-inch shells. Because tungsten is harder than lead, ensure your shotgun's choke is rated for TSS or non-toxic shot to prevent potential barrel damage.

The advanced buffering material fills the gaps between the tungsten pellets, preventing them from deforming during the firing process. This protection ensures the shot maintains a tight, uniform pattern as it travels downrange, which is critical for precision at extended distances.

While #9 shot may seem small, the high density of the tungsten alloy allows these pellets to hit with significant force. This size provides a higher pellet count per shell, which creates a denser pattern and increases your chances of hitting vital areas.

Thanks to the high-density tungsten and the 1100 fps muzzle velocity, these shells are engineered to maintain lethal energy at distances where standard lead loads would lose effectiveness. However, your specific effective range will ultimately depend on your shotgun's barrel length and the specific choke tube you are using.
