HEVI-Shot Hammer 20 gauge non-toxic shotgun ammunition is engineered specifically for waterfowl hunters who want the reach of heavier pellets without the cost premium of all-bismuth loads. This hybrid load pairs a 15 percent layer of HEVI-Bismuth pellets (9.6 g/cc density) over a steel shot foundation, giving you extended effective range and denser patterns on ducks and geese while keeping your per-round costs reasonable. If you're hunting from a layout blind or pass-shooting over water and need reliable, non-toxic performance that stretches your effective distance, Hammer bridges the gap between budget steel and premium bismuth.
The layered pellet design isn't just about mixing materials—HEVI-Bismuth's superior density means those heavier pellets hit harder and hold velocity better than steel alone, translating to more consistent lethal performance at distance. The precision steel payload makes up the bulk of each round, so you're getting the volume and pattern density steel offers, but with ballistic and range advantages over straight steel shot. Cold-weather waterfowl hunting often means longer shots and tougher conditions; Hammer's construction addresses both.
Since HEVI-Shot Hammer uses non-toxic shot, it meets waterfowl regulations across the continental US and beyond. Whether you're hunting public water where steel is required, or private land where you want to avoid lead, this load gives you a legitimate option with real range and pattern credibility.
| Gauge | 20 |
| Ammunition Type | Non-Toxic Shotgun Ammunition |
| Shot Material | HEVI-Bismuth and steel composite |
| Primary Intended Use | Waterfowl hunting |
Yes. HEVI-Shot Hammer is non-toxic ammunition and complies with waterfowl regulations across the continental United States where non-toxic shot is required.
The 15 percent layer of HEVI-Bismuth pellets (9.6 g/cc density) sits atop the steel shot payload. Bismuth's greater density extends effective range and tightens patterns compared to all-steel loads, while the steel foundation keeps costs lower than all-bismuth ammunition.
HEVI-Shot Hammer is available in No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 shot sizes for waterfowl applications.
We recommend consulting your shotgun's manual or manufacturer to confirm compatibility with steel shot ammunition, as some shotguns have specific restrictions on non-lead shot types.
