Hevi-Shot HEVI-Hammer 12ga 3" 1-1/4oz #3 Waterfowl
Hybrid bismuth-steel waterfowl loads combining 15% HEVI-Bismuth pellets over precision steel for extended range, tighter patterns, and cleaner kills on ducks and geese.
Premium Hybrid Waterfowl Ammunition
The Hevi-Shot HEVI-Hammer represents a thoughtful compromise between performance and economy. By layering HEVI-Bismuth pellets over a steel shot base, this load delivers the extended range and pattern density of bismuth without the premium price tag of all-bismuth ammunition.

Why This Load Works
Waterfowl hunting demands ammunition that delivers clean, ethical kills at extended ranges. The HEVI-Hammer's bismuth-forward design extends your effective shooting distance while maintaining the economy of steel-based loads. More ducks and geese come home cleanly, and your ammunition budget stretches further.
