Last Call Double Shot LEDE

Winchester Ammunition has launched Last Call Double Shot, the latest addition to the company's premium waterfowl shotshell line. Last Call Double Shot pairs high density Tungsten Super Shot (TSS) with plated precision steel shot to deliver an ultra high-performance waterfowl load. The lethal combination of steel and TSS provides up to 35-percent more pellets than traditional steel shot waterfowl loads, which maximizes hit probability for a more successful hunt.

Available in 12- and 20-gauge, Last Call Double Shot shotshells contain a custom blend of #2 ½ steel shot and #8 or #9 TSS. For those chasing geese through the flyways, a blend of #BB steel shot and #7 TSS will also be available.

“This new hybrid load is engineered for waterfowlers who refuse to compromise,” said Kyle Masinelli, senior director of Product Innovation and Strategy for Winchester. “By combining plated precision steel shot with ultra-dense TSS, we’ve created a load that delivers devastating downrange energy, tighter patterns, and lethal penetration even at extended distances. Last Call Double Shot delivers the incredible performance of TSS without the ultra-premium price tag of all TSS shotshell loads.”

Features:

  • 18 G/CC TSS Shot
  • Stacked payload with half-sized shot improves pellet counts to maximize lethality
  • Sealed wad and primer offer water resistance for safe and reliable performance
