When precision and extended lethal range matter, ammunition choices make the difference between an ethical hit and a pass. Hunters and serious range shooters demand shells that deliver consistent patterns and carry energy out past where standard steel pellets fall off.

HEVI-SHOT HEVI-STEEL

Performance and ballistics

Designed specifically to give a hunter more lethal range than regular steel shotshells using higher density shot, HEVI-SHOT HEVI-STEEL increases retained energy downrange. The higher-density pellets penetrate and retain velocity better than conventional steel, producing tighter patterns at extended distances. That translates to more ethical kills where longer shots are required.

Higher-density shot explained

Where typical steel shot suffers from rapid energy loss, HEVI-SHOT HEVI-STEEL uses denser materials to slow deceleration. This results in deeper wound channels on medium-sized game and improved pattern uniformity through choke tubes. For those switching from lead or standard steel, expect noticeable changes in point of impact and required range estimation.
