    28 Gauge Copper Shotshells Details

    Bismuth is out. Copper is in.

    The next generation of non-toxic shotshells is here. Boss Copper delivers the same trusted performance our Legacy Copper-Plated Bismuth shells were known for. Tight patterns, lethal penetration, and consistency you can count on - now engineered in copper.

    Here's the run down:

    Boss Copper packs 94% the density of bismuth but brings 3× the hardness - meaning those pellets don’t deform as much. They cut through the air clean, with less drag and more consistency. The result? Uniform, punishing patterns that stay tight downrange and punch with identical penetration in ballistic gel.

    Copper’s softer than steel, so it’s old gun and fixed-choke friendly. Thirty-yard spreads are dialed-in tight with F-IM-Mod, and long shots sing with IM to Mod. Early field reports echo what we heard with bismuth - same knockdown power, same confidence - minus one thing: fragmentation.

    This is the next era of Boss performance.

    Copper 28 are an absolute pile driver! ( Verified Buyer )

    If you know sea ducks, you know they are hard to kill cleanly sometimes. This past weekend I took them out sea duck hunting and killed birds more stone dead than l've done in my life. There's something special about how these shells hit! I'm super impressed!
    Better than Bismuth ( Verified Buyer )

    I was hesitant on this stuff like a lot of people were, but I started killing ducks with it and it's performance was just as good as bismuth without the fragmentation! I pick and eat all my ducks whole so fragmentation of pellets is a big deal and with this copper it doesn't. If you are hesitant take the leap!
    28 Ga. Boss Copper is the real deal

    My first hunt with new Boss Copper wasn't for ducks, but Woodcock and Grouse in an area with opportunity to jump shoot woodies. This was a limited test - two shots, two birds. But Boss Copper looks like the real deal. Customer service in straightening out an error I made submitting an order was above expectation, and the shells arrived on my doorstep day after. I shoot only legacy SxS shotguns - they're precious, and I would never trust them to steel or tungsten. BOSS copper looks like the next generation of fodder for my herd.
