Its a very hard pellet....here's the pellet weights.

A TSS 9's pellet weighs 1.2grs. and 9.5's TSS weighs 1gr.

They claim the #9 TSS is as effective as a #4 lead....

A lead #4 pellet weighs 3.30 grains....a lead #7 shot weighs 1.50 grains....both substantially more weight than the smaller TSS pellet.

Energy is figured by computing weight and velocity. There is no way a #9 TSS pellet weighing a third of a #4 lead can have more energy than a lead #4 shot moving at the same velocity.....fact is a lead #7 has more energy than a TSS #9 size shot moving at equal velocity.

The TSS bOys like to talk in ccs...

They will avoid talking about pellet weights at all cost.

Here a cc...there a cc...everywhere a cc...

ccs on the brAin.


No one wants to talk about pellet weights...


If a lighter shot pellet penetrates just as deep into the central nervous system in a turkey's neck, weight is irrelevant, if sufficiently heavy enough (and dense enough) to fully penetrate bone and nerve tissue with sufficient energy to throw the switch. Lead 6's, 7.5's kill turkeys just as dead as lead 2's or 4's and so does TSS shot in various sizes AND weights. Good news. Federal has discovered a material denser than depleted uranium or tungsten. Depleted Frankcranium (its normal state). Once Ballistic Engineers learn how to handle it without a serious drop in IQ, it'll be on the market. You better get more lost if that is possible.
