The HEVI-Shot HEVI-Hammer delivers devastating knockdown power for waterfowl hunting with premium tungsten-based shot that maintains lethal energy at extended ranges. This 20-gauge load combines the manageable recoil of a smaller gauge with the terminal performance traditionally reserved for 12-gauge shells.
What Makes This Different
HEVI-Hammer shells utilize a proprietary tungsten-iron shot blend that achieves 12% greater density than standard steel shot, resulting in deeper penetration and more consistent patterns. The advanced shot composition maintains velocity longer than conventional alternatives, extending effective range by up to 15 yards compared to steel loads. Each shell delivers consistent 1,350 fps muzzle velocity with reduced felt recoil.
Key Features
- Tungsten-iron shot blend provides 12% greater density than steel
- 3-inch magnum shells loaded with 1 ounce of #2 shot
- Muzzle velocity of 1,350 fps for flat trajectory performance
- Premium wad design ensures tight, consistent patterns
- Non-toxic composition meets all federal waterfowl regulations
- Low-recoil formulation reduces shooter fatigue
- 25 shells per box, 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)
Field testing demonstrates consistent patterns at 40+ yards with excellent knockdown performance on ducks, geese, and upland birds. The reduced recoil characteristics make these shells ideal for youth hunters and extended shooting sessions. Weather-sealed primers and cases ensure reliable ignition in wet conditions typical of waterfowl hunting environments.
