HEVI-Shot TSS Turkey 28 Gauge 3" 1 1/4 oz Tungsten #9 Shot - 5 Rounds Per Box (Case of 10)

HEVI-Shot TSS Turkey 28 Gauge 3" ammunition delivers the density and pellet count needed for consistent, hard-hitting turkey loads from a lighter shotgun. Built on HEVI-18 tungsten super shot technology, these 1 1/4 oz loads in #9 shot size pack significantly more mass per volume than traditional lead, allowing you to maintain lethal energy downrange while using a smaller gauge and a compact, handy gun. If you've settled on a 28 gauge for turkey hunting—whether for reduced recoil, easier carry, or simply because it fits you better—this is the round that lets you hunt with full confidence.

The key to HEVI-Shot's performance is the tungsten pellet itself. At 18 g/cc density, HEVI-18 is substantially heavier than lead, so a #9 pellet retains velocity and energy comparable to larger shot sizes in traditional loads. You get a denser pattern and more projectiles in the vital zone without jumping up to a 20 or 12 gauge. The sealed spherical buffer technology keeps pellets uniform as they travel down the barrel, tightening your shot pattern—essential when every pellet counts on a turkey at distance.

Each box contains five rounds, and this listing is for a case of ten boxes (fifty rounds total). The 3" hull accommodates the full 1 1/4 oz payload and delivers 1200 fps muzzle velocity, the velocity you need to build and maintain lethal patterns. Whether you're hunting open country, timber, or fields where turkeys work and pattern tight, TSS Turkey in 28 gauge puts you in the conversation with bigger bores while keeping your gun nimble and your shoulder friendlier.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will HEVI-Shot TSS Turkey 28 gauge perform like a 12 or 20 gauge load?

The #9 shot pellets in this 28 gauge load are denser than lead and deliver lethal energy comparable to larger shot sizes in traditional ammunition, thanks to the HEVI-18 tungsten density. You get a compact, lighter-recoiling platform without sacrificing downrange performance—but shot placement and your specific gun's pattern will always matter most on turkeys.

What is the difference between HEVI-18 and standard lead shot?

HEVI-18 tungsten super shot is significantly denser than lead, allowing smaller pellets to maintain the velocity and energy needed for lethal turkey hunting. The higher density also results in tighter patterns due to less pellet deformation in the bore.

How many rounds are in a case?

This case contains ten boxes of five rounds each, for a total of fifty rounds.

Is this ammunition safe for all 28 gauge shotguns?

These are standard 3" shotshell loads. Always verify that your shotgun is rated for 3" shells and tungsten ammunition before firing; check your manufacturer's specifications if you're unsure.
