Tungsten Super Shot TSS Hunting Pellets from Pur-Tungsten are the perfect shots for all your (Airgun) needs. Tungsten makes the best choice for airgun pellets. Tungsten Super Shot has a much higher density than the copper or steel loads that airgun enthusiasts have been using instead of lead in restricted areas. TSS gives you an even higher density than lead without lead's known toxicity! The USA federal ban on the use of lead shot for waterfowl areas was phased-in starting with the 1987-88 hunting season. The ban became nationwide in 1991. The federal government banned lead shot for all waterfowl hunting. Initially the ban motivated a transition from lead to steel shot, and steel remained the main option for waterfowl hunters for many years. Though steel shot is certainly less harmful to the environment than lead, its effectiveness is far from perfect. While steel is harder than lead, it is also less dense (around 8 grams per cubic centimeter versus lead’s 11 g/cc). Steel loads means less kinetic energy downrange. Copper loads have a similar issue with a density (around 8.5 g/cc). The inadequacy of steel and copper shot led people to experiment with other non-toxic materials and eventually tungsten became the superior choice. Tungsten changed the game when it comes to how we think about (Airgun) ballistics. Having a density of 19.3 g/cc (nearly 70 percent denser than lead), tungsten is now the best option for hunting and target shot. Manufacturers experimented with different alloys until they came across what we now refer to as Tungsten Super Shot (TSS), a composition of 95 percent tungsten and 5 percent nickel & iron powder. TSS isn’t just an alternative to other non-toxic shot materials, it’s a vast improvement over anything that’s ever existed! There are a ton of advantages to using TSS as your loads. Being 60 percent denser than lead and over twice the density of steel, you can get more kinetic energy out of a smaller shot size. For example, a single #9 pellet of TSS has a similar mass to a #5 lead pellet. Smaller pellets are also less affected by wind because of their smaller surface area—which leads to greater accuracy, especially at longer distances. Denser tungsten pellets slow less quickly, and maintain their speed and energy for a longer distance. TSS doesn’t hit and smush like lead, TSS hits and drives through the target. Once you use tungsten as your (Airgun) load, you'll start to understand the extreme effectiveness of TSS. TSS is undeniably better than lead or steel in its effectiveness, but it is also better for the places where we hunt and fish. As hunters and anglers, we all care about clean water and healthy ecosystems. Switching to non-toxic tungsten is a no-brainer. The undeniable effectiveness of Tungsten Super Shot is the greatest advance in shot performance in recent history!
