Kent Cartridge Ultimate Turkey 12 Gauge 2.75-Inch 1-5/8oz #5 Shot, 10-Round Box

Kent Cartridge Ultimate Turkey 12 gauge shotshells (Kent part no. C122TK465) load a heavy 1-5/8 ounce payload of #5 Diamond Shot for hunters who need one pattern to put a gobbler down for good. Kent Cartridge builds Diamond Shot from high-antimony lead, hardened enough to resist deforming as it travels down the barrel, which keeps pellets round and patterns dense at turkey range. Custom-blended powder charges push that heavy payload with enough consistency to fill a pattern board at 40 yards and beyond. For shotgun shells built specifically for turkey season, this load is engineered around knockdown power, not general-purpose versatility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why use hardened Diamond Shot for turkey loads? High-antimony pellets resist deforming as they travel down the barrel, which keeps patterns round and dense at longer turkey ranges.

Is #5 shot a good turkey size? Yes, #5 balances enough pellets for pattern density with enough per-pellet energy to anchor a gobbler at typical hunting ranges.

How far should I pattern this load before the season? Pattern it at your intended hunting distance, typically 30 to 40 yards, since payload and choke combinations change pattern density significantly.
