It's finally here! The Tungsten Manual details the tools, components, techniques, and load data necessary for achieving the finest ballistic results with tungsten-based shotshell pellets (e.g., Hevi-Shot, BPX Devastator, SpheroTungsten Original-15, and SpheroTungsten Super Max-18/Valu-TSS Tungsten 18.0). Includes a vast array of information and load receipes that unlock the potential of tungsten loads.
Advantages: The inherent hardness and density of tungsten makes it ideally suited for premium field loads. At almost twice the density of chilled lead shot, SpheroTungsten Super Max-18/Valu-TSS Tungsten 18.0 shot can transform even your small-bore shotguns into certified goose and turkey annihilators. Care and proper loading techniques must be observed load tungsten shot effectively. BPI's load data for peak tungsten performance. The 1st edition of the Tungsten Manual is the single largest collection of tungsten shot load data ever compiled.
The physical differences of tungsten-based shot require that it be loaded differently than lead or steel shot. In short, if you're not loading tungsten properly, then you won't take advantage of its physical benefits.
The Tungsten Manual includes load recipes utilizing high-performance propellants and components. Loading data for 10 gauge -.410 bore, including steel-tungsten duplex loads:
Loads by gauge:
(12) 10ga loads
(162) 12ga loads
(32) 16ga loads
(76) 20ga loads
(33) 28ga loads
(24) .410 loads
