HEVI-Shot HEVI-Hitter Tungsten/Steel Shotshells 20ga 3" 7/8oz 1450 fps #3 25/ct

HEVI-Shot HEVI-Hitter Tungsten/Steel shotshells deliver a hybrid approach to 20-gauge waterfowl loads that balances density, pattern, and lethality across multiple ranges. These 3-inch shells load 7/8 ounce of shot in a purposeful blend: 20 percent premium tungsten and 80 percent steel. That combination gives you the pattern reliability of steel in close-to-moderate scenarios while packing the pellet density needed to reach distant ducks and geese—a real advantage when you're hunting variable conditions and can't always predict how birds will work into your decoys.

At 1450 feet per second, HEVI-Hitter #3 shot reaches out with authority without the felt recoil spike of heavier loads. The tungsten layer handles energy transfer where it counts; the steel backbone keeps pellet count high enough to maintain consistent shot string density on distant targets. HEVI-Shot's engineered wad supports the pattern integrity the company is known for. Nontoxic construction means these loads are legal for waterfowl hunting across the board.

Twenty-five shells per box gives you a practical training and hunting volume. If you've wanted tungsten performance but hesitated at the cost of pure tungsten loads, or if you've stuck with steel but wished for tighter patterns at range, HEVI-Hitter splits the difference without compromise. It's the load for 20-gauge hunters who refuse to choose between pattern and power.
