The HEVI-Shot HEVI-Metal Extreme delivers superior knockdown power through its innovative steel and tungsten pellet combination. This 20-gauge ammunition addresses the challenge of achieving maximum lethality while maintaining compliance with non-toxic shot requirements for waterfowl hunting.

What Makes This Different

The dual-pellet system combines #4 steel shot with #1 tungsten pellets in a single shell, creating a devastating pattern that outperforms standard steel loads. While traditional steel ammunition relies on velocity alone, this design leverages tungsten's 18 g/cc density to maintain energy at extended ranges. The result is 40% more knockdown power than conventional steel loads at typical waterfowl hunting distances.

Key Features

  • Dual-pellet design with #4 steel and #1 tungsten shot for maximum effectiveness
  • 1 1/16 oz payload delivers consistent patterns through modified and full chokes
  • 3-inch magnum shell provides 1,350 fps muzzle velocity
  • Tungsten pellets maintain 95% of their energy at 50 yards
  • Steel shot component ensures federal compliance for migratory bird hunting
  • Premium wad design reduces barrel leading and improves pattern density
  • Temperature-stable powder performs consistently in cold weather conditions
Field performance testing shows this ammunition maintains lethal energy on large ducks and geese at ranges where standard steel loads become marginal. The tungsten component penetrates deeper while the steel shot creates a wider wound channel. Hunters report clean kills on high-flying Canada geese at 45+ yards, with minimal crippling loss compared to steel-only loads.

Technical Specs

  • Gauge: 20
  • Shell length: 3 inches
  • Shot weight: 1 1/16 oz
  • Shot sizes: #4 steel / #1 tungsten

This ammunition represents the evolution of non-toxic waterfowl loads, bridging the gap between affordable steel and premium bismuth or tungsten-only options. The dual-pellet approach maximizes both pattern density and individual pellet energy, making it an intelligent choice for serious waterfowl hunters who demand consistent performance.
