The Federal Premium Turkey Heavyweight TSS 410 Gauge delivers devastating terminal performance in a compact package that transforms small-bore hunting capabilities. This specialized turkey load combines tungsten super shot technology with Federal's precision manufacturing to create patterns that rival larger gauges while maintaining the maneuverability advantages of the 410 platform.
What Makes This Different
Tungsten Super Shot (TSS) provides 56% greater density than traditional lead shot, resulting in deeper penetration and more consistent energy transfer at extended ranges. The 13/16-ounce payload of #7 shot creates approximately 290 pellets per shell, delivering pattern densities that exceed most 12-gauge turkey loads. Federal's FliteControl Flex wad system manages shot dispersion for optimal pattern performance at turkey hunting distances.
Key Features
- Tungsten Super Shot pellets deliver 1,200 fps muzzle velocity for flat trajectory
- 13/16-ounce payload contains approximately 290 individual #7 pellets
- FliteControl Flex wad technology optimizes pattern density at 20-40 yards
- 3-inch magnum shell length maximizes powder capacity and velocity
- Nickel-plated brass head construction resists corrosion and extraction issues
- Compatible with all 410-gauge shotguns chambered for 3-inch shells
- Premium primer and powder combination ensures consistent ignition
Field testing demonstrates effective turkey harvesting capability out to 40 yards with proper shot placement, extending the practical range of 410-gauge platforms significantly beyond conventional loads. The high pellet count and retained energy make this load suitable for experienced hunters targeting mature gobblers in dense cover situations. Weather-sealed crimping and quality control standards maintain reliability across temperature extremes and storage conditions.
