Federal Premium HEVI-Bismuth 12 gauge ammunition delivers non-toxic shot performance for hunters who won't settle for compromises between pattern consistency and effective range. This load pairs #4 bismuth pellets with Federal's FLITECONTROL FLEX wad to produce clean, reliable patterns in both modern and traditionally-choked shotguns—a genuine advantage if you're working with inherited or classic firearms alongside newer gear.
The core appeal of bismuth is density: at 9.6 g/cc, HEVI-Bismuth pellets carry significantly more downrange energy than steel of the same payload size, which means tighter, more lethal patterns on upland birds and waterfowl. Because bismuth is softer than steel and tungsten, it's gentler on your barrel and chokes—important if you're rotating between hunting situations or shooting older shotguns that weren't originally designed for steel shot. Each round launches 1 1/4 ounces of shot at 1350 fps, balancing velocity with recoil management across a standard 2.75-inch chamber.
FLITECONTROL FLEX uses a rear-deploying design that promotes consistent separation and more efficient energy transfer downrange, reducing flyers and improving your effective kill zone. These pellets are alloyed and cast in the USA, so you're getting quality control and consistency that matters when you're counting on reliable performance in the field.

Yes. One key advantage of bismuth is that it's safe in both modern and classic shotguns. It's softer than steel and tungsten, so it won't damage traditional barrels or chokes the way steel shot can. If your shotgun is chamber-safe for 2.75-inch shells, HEVI-Bismuth will function reliably.
HEVI-Bismuth pellets are 22 percent denser than steel at the same weight, which delivers more lethal energy downrange and tighter, more efficient patterns. You also get higher pellet counts than you'd achieve with comparable-performing steel loads, improving your odds of clean hits on moving targets.
Each box contains 25 rounds of Federal Premium HEVI-Bismuth 12 gauge 2.75-inch shotshells loaded with 1 1/4 ounces of #4 bismuth shot.
HEVI-Bismuth is a non-toxic shot load and complies with non-toxic waterfowl regulations. Always verify current regulations in your state or region, as hunting season rules and ammunition requirements vary.
