The HEVI-Shot HEVI-Metal HS38006 delivers extended range performance for waterfowl hunters demanding consistent patterns at longer distances. This 12-gauge ammunition combines steel and bismuth pellets to create a denser payload that maintains velocity downrange better than traditional steel loads.

What Makes This Different

HEVI-Metal technology blends steel pellets with HEVI-Shot's proprietary bismuth alloy, creating a layered shot column that outperforms standard steel ammunition. The heavier bismuth pellets maintain energy at extended ranges while the steel provides additional pellet count for improved pattern density. Independent ballistics testing shows 15-20% better retained energy at 50 yards compared to conventional steel loads.

Key Features

  • Layered steel and bismuth shot for superior downrange performance
  • 3-inch magnum shell with 1-1/4 ounce payload for maximum knockdown power
  • Size 6 shot optimized for ducks, geese, and large waterfowl
  • High-velocity loading delivers 1,450 fps muzzle velocity
  • Non-toxic shot composition meets all federal waterfowl regulations
  • Premium hull construction ensures reliable feeding and extraction
  • 25 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case for volume shooters
Field testing demonstrates consistent patterns through modified and full chokes at ranges exceeding 45 yards. The dual-density shot column creates effective killing power on large Canada geese while maintaining sufficient pellet count for smaller puddle ducks. Weather-resistant crimping and waterproof primers ensure reliable ignition in wet marsh conditions.
