Hex Steel Shot. Six-sided, multiple-edged shot provides increased trauma and wound channel, resulting in fast kills. 3. Diamond Cut Wad. Designed to maximize pattern performance of Hex shot.

The 3 1/2-inch, 12-gauge shotshell was designed to hold larger pellets to pattern well enough to kill large ducks and geese. Winchester hex-sided pellets allow more steel to fit in the same space. The No. 2 payload in Blind Side 1³â'„â‚'-ounce loads count out to 169 pellets.

Steel shotshells, like the Winchester XPERT 12GA #7 Steel Shot, typically have higher muzzle velocities. This compensates for steel shot's lower density by simply making it go faster, although a higher muzzle velocity does come at the cost of heavier recoil (assuming all other factors remain equal).

Steel is less dense than lead. The pellets weigh one-third less than lead pellets of the same size. Steel retains less energy and may not kill birds cleanly at the same ranges. Steel with the same weight and shot size contains more pellets than lead, making loads that contain more shot than necessary.
