Deep Dive

Overview

The HEVI-Shot HEVI-18 TSS Turkey 20 Gauge load is purpose-built for hunters who demand top-tier performance from their 20 gauge shotguns. Designed specifically for turkey hunting, this shell excels in delivering tight, consistent patterns and exceptional downrange energy. The combination of a 3 inch hull, 1 1/2 ounce payload, and #7 Tungsten Super Shot pellets makes it ideal for clean, ethical kills at both close and extended ranges. Its high-density tungsten shot maintains velocity and penetration beyond what lead or steel can offer, making it an outstanding choice for seasoned hunters pursuing wary gobblers in open fields or dense woods.

History and Development

HEVI-Shot has long been recognized as a pioneer in high-density shotshell technology, redefining performance standards in the field. Since its founding in 2000, the company has focused on developing non-toxic, high-density materials that outperform traditional lead, earning the trust of both waterfowl and turkey hunters nationwide. The HEVI-18 line was created to bring the unmatched density of 18 g/cc Tungsten Super Shot (TSS) to hunters seeking maximum lethality and precision. This innovative material allowed HEVI-Shot to load smaller pellets in greater quantities, ensuring denser patterns and deeper penetration while maintaining the lightweight handling of a 20 gauge shotgun.
