Federal Premium TSS 28 Gauge 2" 1-1/4oz #9 Shot Turkey Load

The Federal Premium TSS 28 Gauge delivers devastating turkey performance in a compact package that reduces recoil without sacrificing knockdown power. This premium ammunition combines tungsten super shot with Federal's precision loading to create one of the most effective small-bore turkey loads available.

What Makes This Different

Tungsten Super Shot (TSS) pellets are 56% denser than lead, delivering 22% more energy at 40 yards compared to standard turkey loads. The smaller pellet size creates tighter patterns with more pellets on target, while the 28 gauge platform reduces felt recoil by approximately 30% compared to 12 gauge alternatives. This combination allows for faster follow-up shots and extended shooting sessions without fatigue.

Key Features

• Tungsten Super Shot pellets - 18 g/cc density for maximum energy transfer
• 1-1/4 ounce payload of #9 shot for dense pattern coverage
• 2-inch shell length fits all 28 gauge chambers
• FliteControl Flex wad system for consistent pattern performance
• Nickel-plated brass case head for reliable extraction
• 1200 fps muzzle velocity for flat trajectory
• Premium primer for consistent ignition in all conditions

Field testing shows this load maintains lethal energy beyond 50 yards, with pattern densities exceeding 150 pellets in a 10-inch circle at 40 yards through modified chokes. The reduced recoil makes it particularly effective for youth hunters and shooters sensitive to heavy recoil. Weather-sealed crimp and waterproof primer ensure reliable performance in wet conditions.
