Hevi-Shot is a non-toxic alternative to steel with density similar to that of lead shot. This pellet produces impressive long-range patterns and down-range lethality.
Hevi-Shot is comprised of tungsten alloy (tungsten is an element which is harder than steel/iron), nickel, and iron. Hevi-Shot pellets are very hard and they must be contained within a special non-toxic shotcup.
When selecting Hevi-Shot pellet size, the general rule is to use the same or one size smaller than you would have with lead shot or two to three sizes smaller than steel shot. With that said, this type of generalization cannot replace actual field testing on your part.
