yotebuster Report post Posted April 14, 2020 Did you buy the shells yet? If not look into the TSS ammo from Remington or federal. If you ever cut open a Hevi shot brand shell you’ll question spending big money on it. Looks like welding slag swept up off the floor of a shop. TSS is a little more expensive but patters rediculously tight and is 18g/cc vs Hevi shot which they claim is 13 but a lot of independent studies out there show it around 11.5-12 which is actually lighter or equal to lead. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yotebuster Report post Posted April 14, 2020 This is a pic of what I found inside of some Hevi shot. This was supposed to be a single pellet size. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
