Hevi-Shot Dead Coyote Ammunition 12 Gauge Hevi-Shot Buckshot Non-Toxic
When a coyote finally commits to shotgun range, you need ammunition that delivers decisive energy and a pattern tight enough to count. Hevi-Shot Dead Coyote is a 12 gauge non-toxic buckshot load engineered specifically for predator hunting, built around super-dense tungsten pellets that transfer more downrange energy than conventional lead or alternative loads. The frangible, non-sparking pellets are designed to fragment on impact, minimizing over-penetration while maximizing lethality on target. This is ammunition backed by real-world predator control work: USDA wildlife professionals rely on it for hogs and coyotes alike.
Dead Coyote's pressed tungsten construction delivers the density and ballistics you need to maintain effective patterns beyond typical buckshot range. That downrange performance matters when you're working at distance or in open country where precision counts. Because the pellets are non-toxic, you can use this load legally in areas with non-lead ammunition requirements—important for hunters and control operators in California and other jurisdictions with restrictions.
Built for serious predator work, not casual shooting, this ammunition is a specialized tool for hunters and professionals who've earned their shot at a coyote and intend to make it count. If you're running predator loads, you're investing in performance; Dead Coyote delivers it downrange.
