Description

The HEVI-Shot HS4509 HEVI-18 TSS delivers maximum knockdown power for turkey hunting with tungsten super shot technology that outperforms traditional lead loads. This premium 12-gauge ammunition combines 2.25 ounces of #9 tungsten shot in a 3.5-inch shell for devastating terminal performance at extended ranges.

What Makes This Different

Tungsten Super Shot (TSS) provides 56% greater density than lead, creating tighter patterns and deeper penetration on tough gobblers. The advanced shot composition maintains velocity longer than steel or bismuth alternatives, delivering consistent energy transfer at 40+ yard shots. Each pellet carries approximately 22% more kinetic energy than comparable lead shot sizes.

Key Features

2.25 ounces of #9 tungsten super shot for maximum pellet count
3.5-inch magnum shell length for extended range capability
Tungsten density of 18.1 g/cm³ versus lead's 11.3 g/cm³
Premium wad design reduces barrel leading and improves patterns
Consistent muzzle velocity of 1200 feet per second
Temperature-stable powder for reliable ignition in cold weather
Brass-plated steel head construction for reliable extraction

Field testing demonstrates consistent 90%+ pattern density in 10-inch circles at 40 yards through modified chokes. The smaller #9 shot size increases pellet count while tungsten composition maintains lethal energy transfer on mature birds. This ammunition performs effectively in temperatures ranging from -20°F to 140°F, making it suitable for early and late season hunting conditions.
