The Winchester Super X Magnum Turkey X12MT4 delivers devastating knockdown power for turkey hunting with its high-velocity 1.5-ounce payload of copper-plated #4 shot. This 12-gauge ammunition combines Winchester's proven magnum performance with precision-engineered shot patterns that maintain density at extended ranges.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard turkey loads, the Super X Magnum features copper-plated shot that resists deformation during firing, resulting in more uniform patterns and deeper penetration. The magnum powder charge pushes the 1.5-ounce shot column at velocities exceeding 1,200 fps, delivering 15% more energy than comparable standard loads. Winchester's compression-formed wad system ensures consistent shot release and tighter pattern control at ranges beyond 40 yards.

Field performance testing shows this ammunition maintains effective pattern density at ranges up to 50 yards, making it suitable for both early season close encounters and late season wary birds. The copper-plated shot penetrates dense feather coverage more effectively than standard lead shot, ensuring clean, ethical harvests.
