As tungsten prices have risen exponentially, I've always wondered why the more heavily (not heavier) alloyed tungstens have gone away? Why in the world did they stop making Hevi-13? Why in the world don't they make that Hevi-12 in turkey offerings instead of just waterfowl loads?

The season is over for most of us ...I always urge folks to stock on their favorite turkey ammunition , as it is notorious for fickle supply and product lines have a tendency to be suspended,  discontinued or revamped into something entirely different

There is talk of  a looming tarrif war with the current president promising increased taffifs on Chinese made electric vehicles , iron and aluminum...and the polls are favoring Trump and he is promising even more taffifs on those commodities..

Most of the turkey hunters are not aware  ...That Chinese dominate and control the vast majority of tungsten,  Tss, and tungsten matrix ..if you have been around a awhile the price rose years ago ...resulting in whole manufactured shells and raw tss,hevi etc shot to significantly rise in prices ...there is a possibility for this to happen again

Buy a box or two it won't kill you , im not trying to inject panic , but more of a "steady pace wins the race " and "save up for a rainy day " Nobody can say the prices on turkey ammo will go  UP , but I can promise you ammunition prices on tungsten will probably never go significantly lower in our lifetimes ..

I remember when you could buy copper plated 2 ounce 10 packs of turkey shells off the counter gor 5.99...I'm getting old !

Still a little season left, here.

Had a young man out on his first-ever turkey hunt this past Saturday.  Gonna give it another go on Friday.  Hopefully we can find a willing participant THIS time.

But, yeah......    Always fun goin' at this contest with a bunch of quality individuals AND stone-cold killas.

I don't have any shame anyways.  So "first place losers" is high honors as far as I'm concerned.  :icon_thumright:

We'll have a go at it again next year.
