 Hey guys I've been getting some questions on social media and private messages and emails talking about the new heavy 12 so I wanted to get a video out to you guys real quick and tell you a little bit about it just got it in a few days ago. You guys know the heavy shot brand the heavy shot duck it was very very popular it has been for 20 years still is popular today but we all know the price range is pretty high. Well they now rebranded called it heavy 12 it's the same stuff guys 12 grams per cubic centimeter deadly lethal and now it's in a 25 count box for half the price that the 10 shell box was. Now the reason I'm holding the heavy bismuth box in my hand is I shot this last year three inch six shot with my 20 gauge and my 12 it was phenomenal. I already loved heavy metal because of the bismuth in it less cripples but we went to this it was even less I mean it's just they're dead. You know people say yeah still it's it works it does I used it for years it's the density on that's like I think it's like 7.8 grams per cubic centimeter. Now the difference between that and bismuth bismuth around 9.6 grams per cubic centimeter so that was an astronomical difference but more of a difference in that is the heavy 12 this is 12 grams per cubic centimeter guys and so the penetration and the lethality is ridiculous and like I said I just kind of brought this as a reference because it was a game changer for us when we started shooting straight bismuth. So now to go to heavy 12 is just going to be whole another game. They offer it in 12 20 and 28 gauge and we end up going with a three inch six shot and we're pumped about using it this season. Something to remember too is you can use three shot sizes smaller on this so because of the density and the lethality and then you're getting more pellets on target and that's big for me. I started shooting six shot a couple years ago and I just I really like the difference I just get more pellets down range on the target and just covers the bird more. So now I'm out here with Harrison out at a friend's house and me and him are going to shoot a few different guns. He's got his Stoker 3500 I've got my browning A5 and he's also got his browning maxes so we're going to shoot the heavy 12 that we just talked about earlier in this video and I do want to clarify something it's something easy to get mixed up. I know I did and I know several of people I've talked to you have and that is this is not heavy X heavy X is heavy 10 this is heavy 12. So heavy X is just about 10 grams per cubic centimeter and heavy 12 is 12 grams per cubic centimeter. So more density it's actually heavier than lead lead is 11 grams. So we're going to go out here and just see how patterns I haven't shot it yet want to see how it does. And we're just going to use the old backyard method nothing fancy. So for all you pattern psychos out there that want the 30 inch and circle and all that I'm not doing that today just got a little duck paper that we've used a lot and just kind of see what it looks like freehand shoot it at about 20 yards and let's see how it looks. I have a full choke in mind and when Harrison shoots his he'll kind of say what he has so you guys just know that variances we all know there's a thousand variances you can do you could put improved cylinder you could put ski you can put modified you can put full so we're just going to shoot what we have see what it looks like and check it out. Let's go as you guys know I have the Browning a five had this for a while and I have the kicks high flyer full choke in this I shot that all your last year I never changed it out but I've grown up shooting modified my whole life and that works great. Some people use ski use whatever you want. I'm just saying this is what I have in my gun right now. Here's the heavy 12 three inch six shot. So you have a ton of pellets in there and it's 12 grams per cubic centimeter it's not TSS but it is the heaviest out there and one thing I forgot to say earlier was this is the heavy shot duck so which used to come in a 10 shell box now comes in 25 and they reduce the price by almost 50 percent so anyways that's where we're going to shoot today they just rebranded it so I'm pretty pumped to shoot it because I mean we all know it's not the cheapest thing out there but it is the deadliest one of the deadliest things out there so let's go ahead and shoot this at 20 yards and see what it does let's go take a look let's go take a look go take a look see looks pretty nasty though and Jason it didn't mess your fence up what do you think guys think he's dead he did he did I love six shot I switched to six shot last year on the Bismuth so I'm a big small shot because you're getting so many more pellets and with the density of the 12 grams per cubic centimeter it goes right through I mean a punches right through when you're shooting steel I've shot still my whole life I get it guys it's all about what you can afford in your expendable money right not we all can't just sit there and go buy this stuff but you're gonna shoot less shells less cripples so there is a really good benefit to it maybe you have a special hunt you want to go on and buy a box whatever but anyways using the six shot whether it's Bismuth or heavy 12 you're getting serious penetration I've watched steel bounce off ducks chest or like a honkers chest at 25 yards just you can see pellets bouncing off so this is penetration any bird I cling last year using just heavy Bismuth let alone this stuff heavy 12 and never found any in them it just clean through them all the vitals and everything so let's try Harrison's guns out just to give you guys different points of view and see how that goes so time to shot his a5 I'm gonna start off I got my browning Maxis it's 28 inch barrel with a pattern master black duck so it's supposed to be equivalent to a modified I think it's a little bit tighter than that but we'll see what happens compared to his fix or his kicks full at the heavy 12 number six is again ounce and a quarter so see what happens I know it looks like that's unreal pulled it a little bit yeah still centered whoa that's tighter D for sure that's way tighter that or it's just more conquered like it actually kept the pattern right they might just be better choke you know like for that shell for that shell and that gun that's there's not very many stragglers like no there's not I mean even this is the center of an even if you look you know one flyer here and one there and a couple here there's nothing out here man I would have liked to see that down just about six that's pretty nasty maybe it's gonna shoots a little higher than I thought I put the bead right on his face this is actually my first-ever debt gun that I bought when I was like like I don't even know 10 or 11 years old I saved all my money it's more of a budget gun I got the Stoker M 3500 it has been seracoded and dipped but still the same gun so it gives you another point of view I guess compared to just two brownings so again we got the heavy 12 number six shot see what it does and this is also this is a 28 inch barrel with a pure gold modified waterfowl choke so pure gold's mainly a sporting brand but they do make waterfowl chokes and I've been shooting this for a long time so we'll see what happens yeah a little high but that's incredible those number sixes yeah I'd say he's dead yeah that's a pretty good-looking pattern I mean there's a few flyers but I mean that's gonna happen that's a pretty good-looking pattern there I think a lot of it's going down shot sizes you know you and I have been talking for the last few years I've been shooting I shot fours for well I shot threes for a long time and then like three seasons ago we started talking a lot and I shot I shot fours the last three years and then last year we started venturing you know to the to the bismuth and stuff shooting even sixes and even the heavy teal I've shot some of that the heavy teal fives and sixes and that's just unbelievable my firm believer and shot density over pellet size I mean that right there's 100% dead I'd rather have that right there than you know you know five number twos or five BBs on there all right so that's gonna wrap it up hope you guys enjoyed this video comment down below like I said this is basically the heavy shot duck rebranded and it's the heavy 12 I just pay attention to that because there is heavy X also out there which is heavy 10 then heavy bismuth and they got all the brands we love it I know everybody has their preference and brand you always kind of start getting in a little bit of a little bit of a fight and match when it starts when you start talking about people's guns and their ammo and their dogs but again this is what we shoot what we like and again before we ever even worked or talked to heavy shot we were already shooting that and we start shooting heavy metal seeing the bismuth in it and what stuff does outside of steel it's amazing what it does the penetration and I know for a fact I shot less shells last year shooting that bismuth so I'm excited to try out the heavy 12 this year great pattern we shot three different guns you can kind of see what it did and guys go check it out hit in the store soon see you on the next one
