Federal Premium HEVI-Bismuth 16ga 2-3/4" #5 Shot

Superior Density, Superior Performance

Federal Premium HEVI-Bismuth shotshells represent a significant advancement in non-toxic ammunition technology. At 9.6 g/cc density, these pellets are 22 percent denser than steel, delivering substantially more lethal energy downrange while maintaining the safety profile required for both modern and classic shotguns.

What Sets HEVI-Bismuth Apart

Density and Energy: The increased density means you get more effective knockdown power on upland birds and waterfowl without the hardness concerns associated with tungsten loads.

Higher Pellet Count: Because bismuth is denser than steel, you get more pellets in each shell at comparable performance levels. This translates to denser patterns and improved hit probability.

Softer Than Steel: Unlike steel shot, bismuth pellets won't damage older shotgun barrels. This makes HEVI-Bismuth an excellent choice for vintage firearms and heirloom guns alongside modern sporting shotguns.

Consistent, Reliable Patterns

The rear-deploying FLITECONTROL FLEX wad system creates more efficient, consistent patterns in both ported and non-ported chokes. You'll shoot tighter, more predictable patterns regardless of your barrel configuration.

American-Made Quality

Pellets are alloyed and cast in the USA, ensuring consistent quality and performance you can depend on season after season.
