Buy TSS Size 7 1/2 Shot – Unmatched Knockdown Power for Versatile Hunting
Looking for an edge when it comes to tough upland birds, late-season ducks, or even turkey? TSS Size 7 1/2 Shot brings unbeatable energy, dense patterns, and exceptional range to every hunt. Thanks to the incredible density of Tungsten Super Shot (TSS), these small but mighty pellets hit like much larger steel or lead loads — only with tighter spreads and longer reach.
In this guide, you’ll learn why TSS 7 1/2 Shot is a game-changer, what makes it special, how it compares to other options, and why it’s one of the best investments you can make in your hunting success.
What Is TSS Size 7 1/2 Shot?
TSS Size 7 1/2 Shot consists of tiny pellets, each about 0.095 inches in diameter, crafted from 18 g/cc tungsten material. That’s denser than lead (11.3 g/cc) and far heavier than steel (7.8 g/cc). Thanks to this density, even small TSS pellets carry tremendous downrange energy, allowing hunters to take shots beyond 60 yards with confidence.
With approximately 275 pellets per ounce, you get ultra-tight shot patterns that deliver consistent hits even on fast-moving or long-range targets.
