Winchester Long Beard Tss 12Ga - 3" " 2-3/8Oz #8 5Rd 10Bx/Cs

Winchester Long Beard TSS 12-gauge shotgun ammunition delivers the pattern density and energy needed to put down turkeys cleanly at extended range. Built around 18g/cc Tungsten Super Shot, these 3-inch shells carry 2-3/8 ounces of #8 pellets designed to flow smoothly through any choke tube while maintaining tight, consistent patterns downrange. If you're hunting turkey and want ammunition that maximizes your effective range without sacrificing reliability, Long Beard TSS rounds offer a significant step up from traditional lead loads.

The buffered payload design is key to Long Beard's performance. By protecting pellets during the shot string, Winchester minimizes flyers and deformation—the inconsistencies that open up patterns and cost you birds. The result is dramatically denser patterns in the critical 10-inch circle at 60 yards, giving you a wider margin for error and more energy at impact where it counts most. TSS's density also means fewer pellets are needed to achieve lethal coverage, translating to cleaner, more ethical kills in the turkey woods.

These shells come loaded five per box, with ten boxes per case—a standard packaging format for serious turkey hunters who run multiple setups or shoot practice rounds before season. Whether you're working a gobbler over decoys or glassing from a ridge, Long Beard TSS ammunition is built to perform when the moment matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will Winchester Long Beard TSS work through my turkey choke?

Yes. The buffered payload is designed to flow smoothly through any choke tube, including the tight, specialized chokes turkey hunters typically use. This consistent feeding through different choke designs helps maintain pattern density without creating unpredictable flyers.

How does TSS compare to lead turkey loads?

Winchester Long Beard TSS delivers 6 to 8 times the pellet count in a 10-inch circle at 60 yards compared to traditional lead turkey ammunition, resulting in much denser, more lethal patterns at extended range.

What's the payload weight and why does it matter?

These shells carry 2-3/8 ounces of #8 shot. The combination of TSS's inherent density plus this payload allows Winchester to pack significantly more pellets downrange than heavier lead loads, improving pattern consistency and effective range.

How are these packaged?

Winchester Long Beard TSS comes five rounds per box, with ten boxes packaged per case—50 rounds total per case, a common format for hunters who want to practice, pattern test, and hunt with the same ammunition.
