LEDE Heavyweight TSS Rob Roberts

Federal Ammunition has been shipping its Heavyweight TSS Rob Roberts Limited Edition turkey loads. Developed in collaboration with legendary choke designer Rob Roberts, these limited-edition offerings are built to deliver extreme range, pattern density and lethal energy.

"Rob Roberts has built his reputation on helping hunters get the most out of their turkey setups, and these limited-edition loads reflect that same pursuit of performance," said Dan Compton, Federal's shotshell product line director, "By pairing Federal Premium Heavyweight TSS with his personal favorite shot sizes and our proven Flitecontrol Flex wad, we're delivering a turkey load built for tight patterns, long-range power, and confidence when the shot matters most."

These limited-edition loads are offered in both No. 7 and No. 9 shot, two of Roberts' personal favorites. The No. 7 payload is engineered for an ideal balance of pattern efficiency and long-range power to flatten hung-up gobblers, while the No. 9 option maximizes pellet counts for the ultimate pattern density. Like all Federal Premium Heavyweight TSS ammunition, these loads feature 18 g/cc tungsten-alloy shot that is 56-percent denser than lead for exceptional energy and high pellet counts at extreme ranges.

To maximize pattern consistency, the loads utilize the rear-braking Flitecontrol Flex wad, which performs reliably through both ported and standard turkey chokes. A roll crimp and clear card wad help keep advanced buffering material in place, while full-length wads prevent direct contact between the extra-hard pellets and the bore to protect the barrel.
