For all those who love Tungsten Super Shot (TSS), but own turkey guns in odd sub gauges, or simply prefer a less-common load, the Federal Custom Shop has you covered. While Federal itself offers factory TSS loads in a wide variety of gauges and payloads, the Custom Shop takes the selection even further, with hard-to-find loads such as 12-gauge 2 3/4-inch, 28-gauge or 16-gauge. Customers can choose their gauge, shell-length, shot-size and shot-weight from a list of TSS options. Gauges include 10, 12, 16, 20 and 28, with varying shotshell-lengths and payloads depending on gauge. TSS shot-size could be 7, 8, 9, 10, mixed 7/9 or 8/10—this also depends on gauge selected.
