The beauty of HEVI-Shot’s HEVI-Bismuth Upland loads is that they are alloyed and loaded in Sweet Home, Oregon, USA. These are not a foreign-made product. Instead, they are made from quality components here in the US where discerning quality-control can occur for all-season reliability. HEVI-Shot elaborates on this in their press release statement below, and all 3 current varieties as well as their MSRPs are shown, too:
- HEVI-Bismuth Upland 20 Gauge #5 Shot – MSRP $59.99
- HEVI-Bismuth Upland 12 Gauge #3 Shot – MSRP $63.99
- HEVI-Bismuth Upland 12 Gauge #5 Shot – MSRP $63.99
SWEET HOME, Oregon – HEVI-Shot is proud to release an expansion of its HEVI-Bismuth Upland product lineup. The new option is a 12-gauge, No. 3, 1 1/4-ounce, 2 3/4-inch load set at a muzzle velocity of 1,400 feet-per-second (fps). With this newly added load, HEVI-Shot’s HEVI-Bismuth Upland product line now consists of three total options: two 12-gauge and one 20-gauge.
“HEVI-Bismuth Upland is a good choice for bird hunters for several reasons. It features non-toxic bismuth pellets, so it’s safe to use in both classic and modern shotguns. It also has softer perceived recoil than traditional, heavier lead loads. And it produces amazing patterns,” said HEVI-Shot product manager Scott Turner. “Many people have a real need when it comes to finding a good load to use in their classic fixed-choke shotguns. And for that, HEVI-Bismuth is certainly the answer upland hunters are looking for.”
We are right in the swing of upland bird seasons across the US so if you are still in need of some shotgun shells to bag your limit, you might want to stop by your local brick ‘n mortar retailer to see if they have some of the HEVI-Bismuth Upland in stock.
