Hevi-shot Heavy 18 Tss 28ga - 3" 1-1/4oz #7 5rd 10bx/cs

The Hevi-shot Heavy 18 TSS 28ga - 3" 1-1/4oz #7 is a premium upland and small-game hunting load engineered for shooters who demand superior pattern density and effective range from a lightweight 28-gauge platform. This ammunition is purpose-built for hunters pursuing upland birds, woodcock, and grouse where a smaller bore offers reduced recoil and improved handling without sacrificing lethality. The 28-gauge has carved a devoted following among experienced field hunters who value precision over payload, and Hevi-Shot's TSS formulation elevates this classic gauge to modern performance standards.

TSS (Tungsten Super Shot) delivers a density approximately 56% greater than lead, meaning each #7 pellet retains more velocity and energy at distance, translating to tighter, more lethal patterns downrange. The 1-1/4 ounce payload in a 3-inch 28-gauge hull represents the practical ceiling for this platform, utilizing advanced wad technology to optimize pellet flight and minimize deformation. Shot size #7 provides the balance serious upland hunters demand—sufficient energy for clean kills on fast-moving birds while maintaining pattern density that allows precision aiming rather than relying on shot cloud coverage.

This load performs best in 28-gauge shotguns with 3-inch chambers and chokes ranging from Improved Cylinder to Modified, allowing hunters to match constriction to their preferred hunting distance and cover. The 5-round box format (offered in cases of 10 boxes, or 50 rounds total per case) suits hunters who prioritize quality ammunition for occasional use rather than high-volume shooting. Each round is loaded to consistent velocities in modern Hevi-Shot manufacturing facilities, ensuring reliable ignition and repeatable patterns—critical for field hunters who must trust their ammunition when the moment arrives.
