Why HEVI-Steel?
HEVI-Shot is known for purpose-built hunting ammunition — and HEVI-Steel combines ballistic design and quality components to squeeze the most performance out of steel. While steel is lighter than lead, HEVI-Steel’s internal geometry, choke-friendly payload, and consistent factory patterning maximize pellet counts on target and reduce pellet deformation for tighter, more lethal patterns. That means more clean kills and fewer wounded birds at typical waterfowl engagement ranges.
Key Features & Benefits
Caliber / Length: 12 gauge — 2.75" (standard 12ga shells).
Payload: 1 1/8 oz of steel shot — optimized weight for effective energy transfer and pattern density.
Shot Size: #1 (One) steel shot — excellent for larger ducks and decoying geese at mid-ranges.
Quantity: 25 rounds per box; 10 boxes per case — bulk packaging for frequent shooters and professional use.
Model / SKU: HS61221 • UPC: 816383612217.
Consistent Patterns: Factory-loaded for uniform patterns shot after shot to improve downrange effectiveness.
Non-Toxic: Steel shot meets migratory bird non-toxic regulations — legal for most waterfowl seasons where steel is required.
Reliable Components: Quality primers, propellant, and crimps for dependable ignition and cycling in semi-auto and pump shotguns.
Versatile Use: Ideal for duck hunting, goose decoying, and other migratory bird applications where steel is mandated.
Performance & Practical Use
HEVI-Steel 1-shot is tuned to produce dense mid-range patterns without excessive pellet deformation. The 1 1/8-oz payload offers a balance between pellet count and energy, making it a strong choice when hunting larger puddle ducks, diver ducks, and smaller geese at common engagement distances (typical 25–45 yards depending on choke and shot conditions).
Recommended for use with modified to full choke tubes (and turkey/choke specific choices where legal and appropriate) to achieve optimal pattern density. As always, pattern your specific shotgun, choke, and load combination at the range before hunting to determine the best effective range and point of aim.
Packaging & Logistics
Box: 25 rounds — easy to carry on the blind or store in a range bag.
Case: 10 boxes (250 rounds) — ideal for outfitting a guide boat, lodge, or long hunts where resupply is limited.
 Bulk case packaging reduces handling and is cost-effective for high-round-count shooters.
Safety, Storage & Legal Notes
Always follow firearm safety rules: treat every gun as loaded, keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, finger off the trigger until ready to shoot, and know your target and what’s beyond.
Store ammunition in a cool, dry place away from heat and humidity. Keep out of reach of children.
Observe all federal, state, and local regulations regarding migratory bird hunting and the required use of non-toxic shot. HEVI-Steel meets standard non-toxic requirements for waterfowl in most jurisdictions — verify local rules before hunting.
