Browning rolled out a bevy of ammunition offerings in 2016, shotshells included. What didn't make the initial cut, though, was a turkey load. That's changing in 2017 with the introduction of BXD Turkey.

BXD Turkey will feature nickel-plated and buffered shot, loaded within an aerodynamically stabilized tight-patterning wad. 10 rounds are included in each box.

New offerings include:

• 12-gauge 3-inch 1-5/8 oz. at 1200 fps #4, 5, 6
• 12-gauge 3½-inch 1-7/8 oz. at 1200 fps #4, 5, 6
• 20-gauge 3-inch 1 ¼ oz. at 1200 fps #5

“The new BXD Turkey will hit store shelves in time for spring turkey hunting season. We are excited to expand our line of hunting shotshells to include a tight patterning, deep penetrating, premium performance turkey load at an affordable price,” said Ben Frank, Browning Ammunition brand manager.
