Our flagship turkey load in 12 Gauge; 3 1/2″ of pure hard hitting TSS(Tungsten Super Shot). Offered in 7 1/2, 8, or 9 shot, there is not a cartridge on the market today that matches our payload, 1175 FPS speed and pattern retention. If you’re looking to put the most possible pellets on target, this is the best turkey ammunition on the market. The shot count for these turkey loads are incredible. Our shell loaded with #9 shot boasts 905 pellets. Our #8 loaded shell has 635, and our #7.5 shell has 550. The lethality of this load is absolutely incredible and as a hunters, we want to be as lethal & ethical as possible.

SHOT COUNT:

#9: 905
#8: 635
#7.5: 550

I have used several different turkey loads over the years and Apex outperforms them all by an order of magnitude. They hit harder, shoot farther, and pattern tighter. The pattern density is homogeneous and unmatched. Most turkeys shot with Apex never even wiggle - it simply kills them deader than dead. Getcha a box and see for yourself.

Terrific product and great customer service. Never hunted turkeys until I retired, now I’m 6 for 6 with Apex TSS. Recoil and price were both punishing getting set up. Now if I’m only shooting a couple per year neither matters. Put 426 in 10 in. at 40 yds with 3.5in 9’s with Mossberg 835 and IC choke. I see no reason to shoot anything else. Thanks Apex !

Last season was the first time using apex ammo products. I used the #9 , Turkey load in 3.5 magnum, 12 gauge. The shotgun was a Beretta A350. I shot and killed a gobbler at 83 yards!!! I had a range finder and tested it 3 times and then measured it off. Yes, this load is awesome. Although it worked this time, I will admit that was a long shot, and it is not one to take often. But this turkey load is amazing and then some. I'm ordered some now. Thanks apex.

Having shot a lot of different shells over the years, it is honestly difficult to do a comparison. Hands down the best shell I have ever used for turkeys. There isn't really anything else on the market to compare these with you just have to experience them. Basically everything you want in a turkey shell (pattern density, penetration, construction, etc.) is present at the highest degree with this load. I am especially impressed how the shells handle everything from close range to the farthest limits you would feel comfortable shooting a turkey. Due to a miscalculation on my part, I shot a turkey at 62 yards last year with these shells. Not only did the shot perform at that distance it killed the turkey stone dead. I don't advocate for such long range shots myself but these shells will clearly do it and probably more. I shoot nothing but Apex for turkey now.

Having hunted turkeys for over 40 years I've evolved with ammo as they increased in quality. Apex really separates itself from EVERY other brand on the market. That's not an advertisement bite, its a fact. As a result many of my friends are now Apex only customers. Having harvest 4 birds in the last two years with Apex, I'm dug in with their brand. All I ask of Apex is, don't change a thing, stay humble and keep the quality locked in!

I'm pretty new to turkey hinting...or @ least turkey killing. I think I hunted turkey for 5 years without luck till I switched to the Apex 3.5 inch load using the # 9 shot out of a Remington 870. A 1x4 Weaver kaspa scope helps. The recoil is enough to make me go blind for a second, but there is always a turkey laying there between 50-56 yards when I can see again.

I cannot make a comparison with your product to any other ammo shotgun shell for turkeys because there is NO comparison. I teach turkey hunting seminars and I've harvest over 80 birds. Prior to I used another brand (lead); but these TSS 12 ga. 3.5, #9's are on a level of patterning all their own from 20-60 yards. I harvested a mature gobbler this spring at 55 yards. If fact I held off his first pass, but shot when he came back. Folded right up and never flopped. I'm buying enough boxes so I never run out. Cost is not a factor when you're dealing with quality like this, Gary

Pricey shells but worth it when a gobbler comes in. If you want some additional range while still ensuring an ethical kill, these are the shells to buy. The big Tom I took at 25 yards just fell over and did not move again.

I have been a satisfied Apex customer for 3 years. I have mad some kills that I know I could not pulled off if I had not been using TSS. The first year I used them was in Texas where long shots are usually the norm. After speaking with Jason a few times over the years I suggested he re-name the 12ga. 3 1/2" #9s to "Rocket Launchers". One thing for sure is they will stop the flop.
