The Remington Premier TSS Turkey 20 Gauge delivers devastating knockdown power through advanced tungsten super shot technology, providing 40% more pellets on target than traditional lead loads. This premium turkey hunting ammunition transforms standard 20-gauge shotguns into precision turkey harvesting tools with extended effective range and superior pattern density.
What Makes This Different
Tungsten Super Shot (TSS) pellets maintain 22% higher density than lead, creating deeper penetration and consistent lethality at distances where conventional loads fail. The 1.5-ounce payload delivers approximately 345 individual #9 pellets per shell, compared to just 245 pellets in equivalent lead loads. Federal ballistics testing shows TSS maintains lethal energy beyond 60 yards, extending effective turkey hunting range by 15-20 yards over standard ammunition.
Key Features
- Tungsten Super Shot pellets - 18.0 g/cc density for maximum penetration
- 1.5-ounce payload with approximately 345 individual #9 pellets
- 3-inch magnum shell length for maximum powder capacity
- Premier hull construction with reliable primer ignition
- Optimized for turkey hunting with tight pattern performance
- Compatible with all 20-gauge shotguns chambered for 3-inch shells
- 5 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (50 total rounds)
Field performance data indicates consistent 40-inch pattern spreads at 40 yards with modified chokes, while extra-full turkey chokes produce 20-inch patterns at the same distance. The tungsten composition resists deformation during barrel travel, maintaining spherical pellet shape for improved ballistic coefficient and downrange energy retention. Professional guides report clean harvests on mature gobblers at ranges exceeding 50 yards when paired with appropriate choke tubes.
