BOSS UNLEADED
The best days are earned one mile at a time. Boss Unleaded was built for hunters who trust their dogs, value clean kills and choose non-toxic ammunition without compromising on results.
As most already know, a few months back a memo from the USFWS began to circulate online which seemed to challenge the legality of using our non-toxic copper for hunting migratory waterfowl. We were as shocked as anyone when we saw the position the Agency took as it seemed to undo a year’s worth of effort we were putting into clarifying the CFR’s while also working to have CuProX listed as its own specific non-toxic copper shot . . .
When we made the pivot to copper, we knew the "experts" would have a field day. We’ve all seen the charts. We’ve all read the forum posts where guys argue about density like they’re defending their firstborn. And look, we get it. For years, the industry told you that density was the only thing that mattered.
But at Boss, we’ve always had a different North Star . . .
Tom Roster’s May/June 2026 Shooting Sportsman column, “Copper Shot: What It Is and Isn’t,” takes a hard position on copper shot. That’s fine. But if copper is going to be judged, it should be judged by the same rules that were used to make steel acceptable in the first place. This isn’t just about copper. It is about a ballistic framework that was built to justify steel under constraint and is now being applied inconsistently to modern materials . . .
Precision-built target loads for shooters who expect consistent performance every time they pull the trigger.
"I use Boss Shotshells every time. Not only do I kill more birds, but I’m making a better choice for the health of myself, the land, and the habitat I hunt. For me, it’s about preserving this heritage for future generations while using gear I can believe in, all because I choose a shell that’s American-made and supports our country’s veterans in everything they do."
"As an outfit owner, and someone who always hunts with one of their dogs, the immediate takeaway was the knockdown power. The lack of wounded/sailed birds is evident, and the knockdown power on our big late season geese in Canada is impressive! Great people, great company and a great product made in the USA, what more can you ask for?"
"The performance is obvious with every pull of the trigger. BOSS just hits different!! The heritage, ethics, and conservation of waterfowl have always been important to me and that shows in everything that BOSS does!!"
"Two things in the duck woods I love for them mallards to hear. A BOSS HEN and then some BOSS SHELLS. I’ve never had a shell that’s made such an impact that my buddies I was hunting with went and ordered some immediately. Then on top of a great product, the people behind the brand kick ass and are fun people!"
"You can add one boss shell to any cycle or shells and tell which one the boss is every time. They have a hotter load and longer range capability."
"The folks behind Boss aren’t just making shells; they’re making a commitment to hunters with ammunition that truly delivers. Boss shot hits harder and more reliably than any other shot I’ve used—it’s powerful, consistent, and built to perform. If you’re looking for ammunition that’s genuinely made by people who care, look no further than Boss."
