The HEVI-Shot HEVI-Hammer Upland combines steel and bismuth pellets to deliver superior knockdown power for upland game birds. This 20-gauge load maximizes pattern density while maintaining the velocity needed for clean, ethical harvests at extended ranges.
What Makes This Different
The steel/bismuth blend creates a dual-density payload that outperforms traditional steel loads by 15-20% in penetration tests. While standard steel shot loses energy quickly beyond 35 yards, the bismuth component maintains lethal force out to 45+ yards. Independent ballistic testing shows 92% pattern efficiency at 40 yards compared to 78% for conventional steel loads.Key Features
