I just got back from 7 days of waterfowl hunting in Saskatchewan and was using the S3 steel. I was shooting #4's and they were devastating on waterfowl of any size, ducks, honkers, specks, snows it didn't matter. The best part of all this was no Cripples.

I have been Waterfowling for over 49 years and grew up shooting a 20ga. Since the inception of steel shot I have not experienced a harder hitting steel then what Apex is offering. I hardly shoot my 12ga anymore because the 20ga the new 12 ga now that I’m shooting Apex Steel.

This has got to be the hardest steel shot I have ever shot. I have guided for over 30 years and this ammo definitely makes a difference when it comes to effectively harvesting waterfowl. I’m pleased to know that I can take my 20ga and not worry about being under gunned. Highly recommend!!

I currently shoot a Benelli SBE3 w/ a Patternmaster code black duck/goose choke. I used to shoot Black Cloud but after using this ammo I will never go back. The pattern was incredible and the ducks and geese died instantly or shortly after impact. I even managed to break the wings of 2 geese at 40-50 yards. If you are looking for a solid ammo, look no further!

I was big fan of some other ammo that’s direct to your door and was little reserved about this ammo. I patterned both #4 & #2 shot and was extremely pleased. This is the ammo I will shoot this season. Great price great availability and to top of off the guys that own and run this business are veterans. Y’all can count on my business!!
