Fed Hvywght Tss 12ga 3.5" #7 5/50

Federal Heavyweight TSS 12 gauge 3.5-inch #7 shot delivers extreme-range performance for waterfowl and upland hunting applications. The payload features Heavyweight Tungsten Super Shot pellets with density of 18 gm/cc—22 percent denser than standard tungsten and 56 percent denser than lead of equivalent weight. This density advantage translates to significantly higher pellet counts per shell compared to traditional lead loads, enabling hunters to maintain effective pattern density at extended distances where standard ammunition patterns thin and energy drops.

The 3.5-inch magnum case houses this concentrated payload while the rear-braking FliteControl Flex wad manages recoil and maintains pattern integrity through both ported and standard turkey choke tubes. The increased velocity and retained energy at range allow shooters to extend their effective engagement distance—a measurable advantage in open-water and field situations where birds are working at the outer limits of conventional shotgun range. The #7 shot size balances pellet count and individual pellet energy for waterfowl applications.

This ammunition is engineered for hunters who demand performance at distance and understand the ballistic advantage of tungsten-based shot in magnum configurations. Federal 12 gauge 3.5-inch ammunition in Heavyweight TSS format addresses the specific requirements of dedicated waterfowl hunters operating in large-water environments and open terrain where range capability directly impacts success. Each box contains 5 rounds, supporting both practice and field deployment with consistent ballistics.

Tungsten-based shotshell ammunition represents a category shift from traditional lead loads, offering measurably superior density and retained velocity. Hunters transitioning to Heavyweight TSS should confirm choke compatibility and pattern their specific shotgun before field use, as tungsten's hardness produces different pattern characteristics than lead.
