IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR USE

Tungsten (Wolfram) shot is heavier than lead and steel shot, so it has greater penetration and penetration depth. Shooting ranges are up to half as long again compared to lead or steel. Always maintain a greater safety distance from fellow hunters when using cartridges loaded with tungsten shot. Tungsten is a hard shot material and may pose a ricochet risk when fired. Hard tungsten shot can cause barrel wear or scratches if barrel contact occurs. Before use, ensure your firearm is compatible with steel shot; these cartridges are not recommended for use in firearms equipped with 3/4-choke or full-choke chokes. To achieve optimal pattern and minimize recoil, it is recommended to shoot with 1/4–1/2-choke chokes.

BORNAGHI is an Italian shotgun cartridge manufacturer founded in 1960. Franco Bornaghi initially began manufacturing cartridges for his own competitive shooting needs, but as fellow competitors noticed the high quality of the cartridges, he was able to quickly expand production into a business. Today, the company—celebrating its 65th anniversary—is part of the Chedditte Group, and the BORNAGHI factory in Livorno produces high-quality shotgun cartridges for hunting as well as sports and competitive shooting. The company’s diverse product range includes hunting and clay pigeon cartridges, slugs, and buckshot cartridges.
