Federal Premium Heavyweight TSS turkey ammo in 20 gauge delivers non-toxic tungsten pellets engineered for longer-range turkey hunting. This 2-3/4" shotshell pairs a 1-1/8 oz payload of Tungsten Super Shot in #9 with Federal's Flitecontrol Flex wad system—a combination designed to pattern tighter and more reliably than traditional lead loads, whether you're shooting standard or ported turkey chokes. If you're serious about extending your effective range and putting more pellets on target, Heavyweight TSS ammunition offers the density and consistency that separate clean kills from frustrating misses.
The science here matters. Heavyweight TSS tungsten-alloy material runs 18 g/cc—materially denser than standard tungsten and significantly denser than lead. That extra density translates to retained velocity and energy downrange, which means your pattern stays tight and lethal at distances where conventional turkey loads lose steam. The #9 shot size maximizes pellet count in the payload, putting more opportunities for a lethal hit in the vitals.
The Flitecontrol Flex wad is the other half of the equation. Its rear-braking design works through both standard and ported chokes without sacrifice, delivering the consistent, devastating patterns turkey hunters demand. A roll crimp, clear card wad, and full-length wad construction keep the buffering material stable and the extra-hard pellets from contacting the bore—protecting your barrel and your patterning consistency shot after shot. These rounds ship in a 5-count box, and Federal donates a portion of proceeds to the National Wild Turkey Federation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will Heavyweight TSS pattern through my ported turkey choke?
Yes. Federal designed the Flitecontrol Flex wad to deliver consistent patterns through both ported and standard turkey chokes without trade-offs in performance.
What makes Heavyweight TSS denser than regular tungsten ammunition?
Federal's Heavyweight TSS material is formulated to 18 g/cc density—22 percent denser than standard tungsten alloys. That extra density means the pellets retain velocity and energy farther downrange, keeping your pattern lethal at extended distances.
Is this ammunition non-toxic and legal for waterfowl hunting?
This load is non-toxic tungsten, which complies with non-lead shot regulations in many areas. Always verify your specific hunting location's ammunition requirements before use.
What size pellets do these rounds use, and why does that matter?
These rounds use #9 shot, which packs more pellets into the 1-1/8 oz payload than larger shot sizes. More pellets in the pattern improve the odds of a clean, ethical hit on a turkey's vital areas.
