Federal Black Cloud TSS 20 Gauge 3-Inch 1oz #3/#9 Shot, 10-Round Box

Federal Black Cloud TSS 20 Gauge ammunition (brand part no. PWBTSSX209 39) packs a 1-ounce payload of blended #3 steel and #9 Tungsten Super Shot for waterfowl hunters who refuse to give up pattern density in a sub-gauge gun. Federal Ammunition builds this shotgun shell around 18 g/cc TSS pellets, more than 56 percent denser than lead and over twice as dense as steel, so the small pellets retain velocity and punch through at range that steel alone cannot match. The rear-opening FliteControl Flex wad keeps that mixed payload patterning tight and consistent through any standard choke. Loaded to 3 inches, this Black Cloud TSS shell turns a 20 gauge into a serious waterfowl tool without the recoil of a bigger bore.
