The HEVI-Shot HS16713 HEVI-Bismuth delivers exceptional knockdown power for upland bird hunting with environmentally safe bismuth shot. This premium 16-gauge ammunition combines the density advantages of bismuth with consistent patterns that outperform traditional steel loads. Hunters gain extended effective range and cleaner kills on pheasants, grouse, and other upland game.
What Makes This Different
Bismuth shot provides 22% greater density than steel while remaining completely non-toxic and safe for sensitive hunting areas. The 1-1/8 ounce payload delivers more pellets on target compared to lighter steel loads, increasing hit probability on fast-flying birds. Unlike steel shot that can damage older shotgun barrels, bismuth remains soft enough for use in vintage firearms while maintaining superior ballistic performance.Key Features
