APEX Predator TSS Loads Favored by Professional Hunters

Columbus, Miss. – APEX Ammunition is now shipping its Predator line of Tungsten Super Shot (TSS) shotshells. Meticulously handloaded, these TSS rounds deliver exceptional downrange energy with maximum lethality to take down the toughest coyotes and hogs.

The consistent performance of APEX Predator TSS loads is why many of the nation’s top predator hunters never hunt without it.

Terry Denmon, President and CEO of MOJO Outdoors, had this to say:

“I’ve hunted game from elephants on down and, pound for pound, coyotes are about the hardest to kill,” said Denmon. “At MOJO, our sport is calling predators in close to kill them with a shotgun and before I tried APEX predator loads, we were limited to about 50 yards. With APEX, we make clean kills out to 90 yards. It’s a game changer, and I’ll never hunt predators with anything else.”

When asked about APEX shotshells, Torry Cook of MFK Game Calls said, “I was an APEX skeptic at first, but one shot made me a believer. The pattern density and penetration are unmatched, and now it’s all I shoot. I love the #2’s and #2 / 4 blends. There is nothing better for predators and with APEX, I can shoot ‘em in the head or the tail, either way I’m knocking their teeth out. From turkeys, to hogs, to any kind of predator, APEX is my choice every time!”

APEX offers 12-gauge 3 ½” and 3” shells in shot sizes 2, 4, and BB, and 2 ¾” 20-gauge loads in shot sizes 2 and 4. These ultra-dense, larger-size pellets deliver a devastating payload with tight patterns and superior penetration.
