Overview
Kent’s high-density bismuth load is built for upland hunters who want a non-toxic option in a 12 gauge field load. The 2 3/4" shell carries 1 1/4 oz. of #5 shot, making it suited to general upland use where consistent pellet uniformity matters. Its bismuth construction is described as soft as lead, with the intent of delivering strong energy transfer and maintaining pattern quality at longer distances. Packaged in 25 rounds, it offers a practical choice for hunters looking to stay within non-toxic requirements without changing their upland setup.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Bismuth is a premium non-toxic option, so it may be a higher-cost choice than standard upland loads.
- The 2 3/4" shell length and 1 1/4 oz. payload make this a specific load choice, so it is best matched to guns and hunting setups that are compatible with those specs.
- This is a #5 shot load, which narrows its use to hunters who want that pellet size rather than a more versatile mixed-shot option.
- The product is sold as a 25-round box, so it is a limited-quantity purchase rather than a bulk case.
