The HEVI-Shot HS39202 Metal Xtreme 20 gauge shotshell is built for waterfowl hunters who demand tighter, more reliable patterns without stepping up to a 12 gauge. This 3-inch load pairs a tungsten-steel shot column with the proven FLITECONTROL Flex Wad to deliver consistent, dense patterns downrange—the kind of performance that closes the distance on distant birds and makes for cleaner, more ethical harvests.
Metal Xtreme uses a hybrid shot design: the front 30% of the column is 12 g/cc tungsten, significantly denser than the 70% steel base that follows. That tungsten-first geometry means the hardest pellets break pattern first, creating a denser core when it matters most. The FLITECONTROL Flex Wad, new to HEVI-Shot's lineup, is engineered to maintain shot column integrity longer and release patterns tighter than traditional cup wads—ideal for the open chokes many 20 gauge hunters run.
Loaded to 1350 fps from a 3-inch chamber with 1 1/16 oz of shot, Metal Xtreme delivers the reach and energy waterfowl loads demand while keeping recoil manageable in a lighter-recoiling platform. Each box contains 25 rounds; a case of 10 boxes gives you 250 shells—enough for a full season or a serious early-season push.
If you've been hesitant about 20 gauge waterfowl loads, Metal Xtreme closes the gap. This is tungsten-backed performance in a gun that doesn't beat you up all day.

Yes. Metal Xtreme is loaded to 3-inch specifications and designed specifically for waterfowl hunting from a 20 gauge. Verify your shotgun is rated for 3-inch shells before use.
Metal Xtreme places the densest tungsten pellets (12 g/cc) at the front of the shot column, backed by a larger volume of steel pellets (7.8 g/cc). The tungsten front layer hits harder and holds its velocity longer, creating a denser effective pattern core while the steel base provides shot count and fill.
The FLITECONTROL Flex Wad is engineered to keep pellets together longer in flight and release them in a tighter pattern. It's the first wad system HEVI-Shot integrated into their Metal Xtreme line, designed to maximize pattern density and consistency—critical for reliable waterfowl harvests.
Each case contains 10 boxes of 25 rounds, for a total of 250 shells per case.
