28 Gauge Boss CuProX Shotshells Details

Engineered for Lethal Performance Inside 40–45 Yards


Legacy was built around a simple goal:


Deliver maximum lethal efficiency within real-world hunting distances.


Legacy began with bismuth - the shell that defined Boss and proved that thoughtful engineering could outperform conventional assumptions. CuProX™ carries that same philosophy forward, refining performance through aerodynamics and efficiency while staying true to the foundation that built the brand.


Running CuProX at 1350 fps places the pellet within an optimized velocity window - balancing pellet energy, pattern density, and aerodynamic efficiency to produce consistent terminal performance where most shots actually happen.


This isn’t about chasing velocity.


It’s about delivering dependable lethality inside 40–45 yards.


For the same shot size:

Steel often relies on higher muzzle velocity (such as 1500 fps) to compensate for lower density, but sheds energy quickly due to higher drag.

Boss Bismuth established the Legacy standard through density and proven field performance.

CuProX™ builds on that foundation by improving aerodynamic efficiency, allowing more usable pellet energy to be retained within the effective range envelope.


At typical Legacy distances:

CuProX at 1350 fps delivers approximately 18% more retained pellet energy than steel at 1500 fps, despite the lower muzzle velocity.

CuProX delivers approximately 4% more retained pellet energy than Boss Bismuth at 1350 fps, reinforcing Legacy’s reputation for reliable lethality.


Pattern Control Where It Matters


Legacy with CuProX is engineered for predictable performance across a wide range of choke configurations.


Choke it as tight or as open as conditions demand.

With full chokes, shooters can expect 40-yard patterns approaching 85% or better — representing up to a 15% improvement over Legacy Bismuth.

For tighter shots, opening the choke produces larger, dense, uniform patterns, maintaining consistency through aerodynamic stability rather than excessive velocity.



CuProX maintains pellet integrity on impact, eliminating the fragmentation sometimes associated with bismuth while delivering consistent penetration.


Deadlier by Design.

Wonderful to have yet another alternative to ineffective Stella shot. Boss is always on the spot with communication and service. Simply the best!

These shells flat-out perform. I was consistently dropping pheasants clean with one shot, even stretching it out to around 40 yards. It didn’t feel like I was giving anything up compared to larger gauges.

Only had chance to use on 3-4 Canada geese @ 25-35 yds,, over decoys. Really hit hard and I am convinced to use on future goose hunting trips. I do use a 28 gauge for sporting clays, so I am partial to the 28

Couldn't be more pleased with the new copper loads , im shooting the 3in #4 shot in 28gaSB3 . Packs a punch ,and knocks em dead . Love the little recoil associated with the 28ga. My 2nd, 3rd shot are much easier on birds , as i never black out with the 28ga like I did with a 12ga . Would highly recommend them

I went duck hunting with my best friend and there wasn’t a duck flying so when we packed up and were heading out the dog kicked out some rabbits. I got two one shot each with the 28 gauge #5 copper. Excellent performance and I was checked out by DEC for non toxic shot and even he was impressed with it
Great!! ( Verified Buyer )

As I expected, very impressed!! Coupled with a Benelli, was taking out Sea Ducks in MA with no problems at all. Rolled an Old Squaw at 30-40 yards. Well worth it and will continue to purchase and promote. Thanks

Bought the Copper 3/5 3” in 28ga. First time out had no regrets on the purchase. Makes the 28ga a viable choice on the water

Patterned with a Benelli 28 gauge, Mueller Decoy Choke. Great at 25 yards, not at 25 yards. They penetrated half way thru a 1/2 board. They ought to kill.
Looking forward

Haven’t had a chance to see how the copper stacks up against bismuth but AS USUAL the customer service at Boss was top notch getting some copper to try!!!

Used the 28 gauge copper 3-5’s for the Arkansas split the last two days. Took down everything I shot at and hit. Very pleased with the shells. Folks in the pit with me also took notice what copper could do. I will be buying lots more.
