Title: Hevishot is now in the TSS business
Post by: Dr Juice on January 22, 2019, 06:29:31 PM
It looks like that Hevishot will offer TSS loads this year. I wonder what they are going to cost before rebates?

Its not TSS. Regular hevi shot mixed with the hevi x shot. The hevi x shot is less dense than lead(10g/cc).

It says tungsten on the front of the box and it's not?

Both Hevi-shot and Hevi-x contain tungsten, but that does not make them TSS. It's all in the percentage of tungsten in the pellet, and what EM is offering doesn't come close to the density of TSS.

I bet the price will come close though.

Definitely not 18g/cc TSS at that price. Probably doesn't average 12g/cc since its cheaper than their other loads.

Not TSS either, contains 15g/cc shot which is the same as the old federal heavyweights. They have it priced like tss though, so i cant imagine it'll be very popular @ the price i saw.
