Apex Ammunition 20-Gauge Waterfowl Blend
Apex Ammunition is expanding its TSS/S3 Steel Waterfowl Blend line of shotshells with the addition of a 20-gauge, 3-inch load, combining ⅞-ounce No. 2 steel and ¼-ounce No. 7.5 Tungsten Super Shot. These handcrafted duplex loads are versatile for a variety of hunting situations with the steel patterning especially well for closer shots over decoys followed by the TSS, which has greater retained energy at longer ranges. The zinc coating on Apex’s S3 Steel pellets reduces friction, resulting in more consistent pellet drop when loading the shotshells and better movement of the pellets against each other in the firing process. The combination delivers lethal patterning, maximum barrel protection and shot-to-shot consistency. MSRP: $48.99/25-round box; $479.99/Per 250. www.apexammunition.com
