HEVI-Shot 16 Gauge 2.75-Inch 1 1/8 oz No. 6 Shot, 25-Round Box

HEVI-Shot 16 Gauge (part no. HS16706) ammunition loads a 2.75 inch shell with 1 1/8 oz of bismuth shot, built for upland and clays shooters who need a dependable pattern. HEVI-Shot pioneered dense tungsten shotshell loads that hit harder and pattern tighter than lead or steel at the same shot size. Bismuth is dense and soft enough to be safe in older or fixed-choke barrels, unlike steel, while still meeting non-toxic shot requirements. Loaded 25 to a box in this shotgun shells lineup, it is built to pattern consistently through a standard choke without any special tuning. For shooters in the shotgun shells lineup who want a confirmed pattern, this is a dependable choice.
