APEX Greenleaf Turkey TSS .410 LEDE

Apex Ammunition has added .410 bore to its line of Mossy Oak Greenleaf Turkey TSS shotshells—already a well-establish choice for dedicated gobbler hunters.

Available in 3-inch, 7/8 ounce loads, these lethal turkey rounds feature a combination of No. 9 and No. 10 Tungsten Super Shot, delivering a payload of 395 ultra-dense 18.1 g/cc pellets (110 No.9 shot and 285 No.10 shot). Handloaded for quality control and performance, this sub-gauge turkey round delivers a dense pattern delivering exceptional energy and knockdown power. Each shell features clean-burning powder and Apex’s Tungsten Propulsion Wad System.

Thanks to blends like this TSS load from Apex, .410s have become an increasingly common—and even sought after—turkey gun. With the aforementioned density of 18.1 g/cc, tungsten hits harder than lead (11.35 g/cc), meaning hunters can use smaller shot for denser patterns with more projectiles, while not sacrificing energy. This makes the .410 a solid choice for recoil-sensitive and junior shooters, as well as run and gun hunters who prefer to lug less gun around the woods with them.

“The sub-gauge trend continues to grow here in the United States and, given the phenomenal patterning performance of our Greenleaf Turkey TSS loads in 12-, 20-, and 28-gauge, we have seen a lot of demand for this load in.410 bore,” said Jason Lonsberry, president and CEO of Apex Ammunition. “The .410 may be a little shell with minimal recoil, but it packs a devastating punch with our premium Tungsten Super Shot blend of No. 9 and 10 shot.”

Designed for maximum penetration at extended ranges, Apex Turkey TSS loads are currently available in multiple gauges: 10 gauge; 12 gauge; 16 gauge; 20 gauge; 28 gauge; and.410 bore; as well as a variety of shot sizes, shell lengths and blends.
