New HEVI-Hammer Bismuth-Steel Upland Loads From HEVI-Shot

HEVI-Shot is more than just a brand name. Focusing on using high-density materials, the company has sought to help hunters more effectively take game. One of their lines of hunting ammunition, HEVI-Hammer, has a new addition. Using a mix of dense metals to increase a hunter’s chance of hitting upland birds, this is the HEVI-Hammer Bismuth-Steel Upland load.

“We know HEVI-Hammer Upland will help hunters achieve more success in the field,” said Scott Turner, HEVI-Shot’s Product Line Manager. “Upland game is such a beloved and traditional sport. The camaraderie of the hunting with others, watching sporting dogs do what they do best, and to enjoy hiking around, not having to sit in silence are all things upland hunters love about their sport. And we at HEVI-Shot love it too.”

The new HEVI-Hammer Upland loads use shot that is comprised of 15% high-density bismuth and 85% steel. The higher density bismuth allows the shooter to go down in shot size, delivering more pellets downrange. This mix provides 50% more energy at 40 yards than an all-steel payload. These materials are also non-toxic, making them a great option for those hunting in lead restricted areas. The Upland loads are available for 12- and 20-gauge shotguns. Hunters opting for a 12-gauge have the option of 1-3/8 ounces (shot size No. 3) or 1-1/8 ounces (shot size No. 5) charges. Twenty-gauge shooters also have two options; 1 ounce (shot size No. 3) or 7/8 ounce (shot size No. 5). Both the 12- and 20-gauge shells are 3-inch.
