Apex Ammunition Waterfowl TSS

Tungsten is significantly denser than steel, which allows for smaller shot sizes that retain more kinetic energy and penetration power at longer distances. This blend gives you the pattern density of tungsten with the cost-efficiency and volume of steel, making it highly effective for waterfowl.

Yes, these shells are designed for consistent ignition and performance. However, because they are high-velocity loads at 1450 FPS, ensure your shotgun is properly maintained and cleaned to handle the increased recoil and pressure.

This duplex load is designed to provide both reach and pattern density. The larger #4 shot carries the energy needed for deeper penetration on larger birds, while the #7.5 shot fills in the pattern gaps to ensure a higher hit probability at extended ranges.

While tungsten-steel blends are generally safer than pure tungsten, you should always verify that your barrel is rated for high-velocity steel loads. If you are shooting an older shotgun with a full choke, it is recommended to use a more open choke to avoid potential barrel damage.

The high velocity of 1450 FPS means the shot reaches the target faster, resulting in less time-of-flight. You will likely find that you need to lead the birds slightly less than you would with standard-velocity waterfowl loads.
