Winchester Long Beard Tungsten Shotshell 20ga 3" 1-9/16oz 1100 fps #9 5/ct
The Winchester Long Beard Tungsten shotshell brings heavy-hitting density to 20-gauge turkey hunting. Loaded with tungsten shot at 17g/cc—significantly denser than traditional lead—these 3" shells deliver the energy and pattern consistency serious turkey hunters demand. At 1100 fps with a 1-9/16 oz payload in #9 shot, they're engineered to tighten your spreads and keep pellets on target through any choke, meaning fewer flyers and more decisive hits in the turkey woods.
What sets Long Beard apart is the buffered payload design. Shot flows smoothly through your choke tube without deformation, creating denser, more reliable patterns downrange. The tungsten composition itself—harder and heavier than lead—transfers energy more efficiently on impact, a real advantage when you're hunting birds that can absorb punishment. Five shells per box gives you enough for a season of scouting, practice, and the moment of truth.
Whether you shoot an older 20-gauge that patterns better with copper-plated or buffered loads, or you simply prefer the efficiency of a lighter gauge, Long Beard Tungsten works in standard turkey guns. The #9 shot size is built for range and pattern density rather than massive individual pellet energy—ideal for tight-choked turkey barrels where you're betting on placement and consistency over pure knockdown power.
