Federal Heavyweight TSS Realtree 40th Anniversary Special Edition Shotshell 12ga 3" 1-3/4oz 1200 fps #9 5/ct
Federal's Heavyweight TSS Realtree 40th Anniversary Special Edition shotshells combine premium tungsten turkey ammunition with limited-edition camo styling to honor four decades of the iconic Realtree brand. These 12-gauge 3-inch shells pack 1-3/4 ounces of Tungsten Super Shot at 1200 fps, delivering the extreme density and pellet count needed for long-range turkey hunting where every shot matters.
Tungsten alloy's 56 percent density advantage over lead means more energy transfer and tighter patterns downrange—critical when you're calling birds in at 40+ yards. The FLITECONTROL FLEX wad is engineered to maintain pattern integrity whether you're shooting standard turkey chokes or modern ported barrels, and the rear-braking design keeps pellets grouped consistently across varied setups. Advanced buffering material surrounds the #9 pellets to minimize deformation during acceleration, while full-length wads protect your barrel from the hardness of tungsten shot.
This is a limited-run collaboration, so availability won't last. If you hunt turkeys seriously and want ammunition that performs as well as it looks, the Realtree Legacy camouflage packaging and premium TSS construction make these shells worth the investment. Each pack contains five shells.

Frequently Asked Questions
What chokes work best with Federal Heavyweight TSS shells?
The FLITECONTROL FLEX wad is designed to perform through both standard turkey chokes and modern ported barrels, delivering consistent patterns with either setup. Your existing turkey choke should work reliably.
Why is tungsten shot better for turkey hunting than lead?
Tungsten is 56 percent denser than lead, which means these shells deliver more energy and velocity at extended range. The higher density also allows for tighter, more consistent patterns—essential when hunting turkeys at 40+ yards where precision counts.
Will these shells damage my shotgun barrel?
No. The full-length wads separate the hard tungsten pellets from direct contact with your bore, protecting the barrel during firing.
Is this a limited-production load?
Yes. This is a limited-edition run celebrating Realtree's 40th anniversary, so availability is restricted once the initial run sells through.
