Winchester Blind Side@ shotshells combines ground-breaking stacked HEX™ Shot technology with the new Diamond Cut Wad to deliver the most deadly waterfowl patterns available. HEX Shot produces quicker kills with more pellets in a larger kill zone. The unique shape of HEX Shot pellets lets them literally stack in the wad cup to give up to 15-percent more pellets per shell, and the six-sided, multiple-edged steel pellets produce 250-percent more trauma on impact, with cutting penetration that maximizes knock-down shock within the bird. The Blind Side Diamond Cut Wad is designed to maximize the pattern performance of Hex Shot, resulting in consistent patterns that increase the kill zone up to 25 percent with Improved Cylinder, Modified or Full choke. Drylok Super Steel® System keeps your powder dry, sealing out moisture to prevent corrosion for improved patterning and consistent velocity. Offered in 12–gauge 3- and 3-1/2-inch shells, in shot sizes No. 2 and BB. For more information, go to: www.winchester.com
