Federal PHBX2443 Premium HEVI-Bismuth 20 Gauge 3" 1 1/8 oz 1350 fps HEVI-Bismuth 3 Shot 25ea $66.75
Availability: In Stock
Federal Premium HEVI-Bismuth 12 gauge shotshell ammunition offers a non-toxic shot option that doesn't ask you to sacrifice performance. Whether you're working through a morning of upland birds or setting up for a waterfowl hunt, these 3-inch shells deliver the energy and consistency hunters expect. The bismuth pellets are engineered at 9.6 g/cc density—22 percent denser than steel—which means better downrange energy and tighter patterns without the hardness that can damage older shotgun barrels.
What sets HEVI-Bismuth apart is the engineering behind it. Each 1 3/8 oz shot charge exits the barrel at 1450 fps, propelled by Federal's FLITECONTROL FLEX wad. That rear-deploying design keeps your pattern tighter and more predictable, whether you're shooting ported or standard chokes. Because bismuth sits softer than steel and tungsten, it's genuinely safe in both classic and modern shotguns—a real advantage if you're hunting with a vintage gun or a new semi-auto.
The #5 shot size makes these shells versatile for mid-range hunting applications. You get higher pellet counts than comparably performing steel loads, which translates to denser coverage when it counts. Federal sources and casts these pellets in the USA, so you know what you're getting in every hull.
This is a 25-round box, ready to reload your blind, your vest, or your range bag. If you've been looking for a non-toxic round that performs like conventional ammunition without compromise, this is worth a close look.

Yes. HEVI-Bismuth pellets are softer than steel and tungsten, making them safe for both classic and modern shotguns. The bismuth alloy composition won't cause the barrel damage that harder non-toxic shots can over time.
HEVI-Bismuth pellets are 22 percent denser than steel, delivering more downrange energy with a higher pellet count at the same weight. You get tighter patterns and harder hits without the penalties of steel—and it's suitable for all shotgun types, not just modern ones.
HEVI-Bismuth is a non-toxic shot option and is formulated for both upland and waterfowl use. Always check your local regulations, as legal ammunition and shot requirements vary by region and season.
The rear-deploying FLITECONTROL FLEX wad keeps pellets together longer and more consistently, creating efficient patterns in both ported and standard chokes. This means better coverage and more predictable shooting across different shotguns and choke combinations.
