HEVI-Shot Hevi-18 TSS 28 Gauge 2.75-Inch #7 Shot, 5-Round Box

HEVI-Shot Hevi-18 TSS 28 Gauge shotshells (brand part no. 7257) load #7 Tungsten Super Shot for turkey hunters who want more energy behind each individual pellet at the far edge of range. HEVI-Shot presses 1-1/16 ounce of shot at 18 grams per cubic centimeter, so even the larger #7 pellet size still outperforms standard lead shot of the same diameter. A friction-reducing spherical buffer surrounds the payload to prevent pellet deformation on its way through the barrel, so the pattern holds together at distance. Crimp-seal resin seals the buffer inside the hull, guarding the load against damage before it reaches the chamber. For 28 gauge hunters chasing longer, more deliberate shots on wary birds, this Hevi-18 loading belongs among Hevishot’s shotgun shells.

• The payload weighs 1-1/16 ounce, delivering solid pellet count despite the larger shot size.
• Muzzle velocity reaches 1200 fps, keeping the shot string fast to the target.
• The shot material is 18 g/cc Tungsten Super Shot, roughly double the density of standard lead.
• A friction-reducing spherical buffer guards pellets from deforming, preserving pattern density downrange.

• At roughly $16.60 per round, the price reflects the tungsten content in every shell.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose #7 shot instead of a smaller TSS size? A larger pellet still benefits from TSS density while carrying more energy per hit, an advantage on longer, more deliberate shots.

Is Hevi-18 worth the price over lead turkey loads? Tungsten Super Shot’s density lets hunters extend effective range well beyond standard lead, which is reflected in the per-shell cost.

How many shells come in a box? Each box holds 5 rounds of 28 gauge Hevi-18 TSS shells.
