AFFORDABLE BISMUTH. LIGHTER RECOIL. BUILT TO PERFORM.
EPIC's 12 GA 2 3/4" Dove & Clay Bismuth was developed to provide a high-quality, lower-recoil bismuth load at a price that makes it practical to shoot more often.
Loaded with 7/8 oz of EPIC High Tensile Bismuth at 1,350 FPS and paired with our Light Magnum 12 Wad, this load is built for dove, clays and other appropriate field applications.

BUILT TO PATTERN
EPIC's Light Magnum 12 Wad was selected to provide consistent pattern density while maintaining the versatility needed for close- to medium-range shooting.
In EPIC testing, this load produced 87%+ patterns inside a 30" circle at 30 yards using a Light Full choke.
Don't assume the tightest choke will automatically produce the best pattern. This load can be tested with more open or tighter choke constrictions to determine what works best with your individual shotgun.
Actual pattern performance will vary by firearm, choke and shot size. Always pattern your individual setup.
BUILT AS AN AFFORDABLE BISMUTH OPTION
We developed this load for one primary reason:
MAKE PREMIUM BISMUTH MORE AFFORDABLE TO SHOOT.
Whether you're a younger shooter, an experienced hunter looking for less recoil, or simply someone who wants a quality bismuth load without the cost of a heavy magnum payload, the 7/8 oz Dove & Clay gives you another option.
Less payload also means you're not paying for additional bismuth you may not need for the application.
BISMUTH VS. STEEL
One of the advantages of bismuth is its greater density compared with conventional steel shot.
For comparison:
12 GA • 7/8 oz • #6 Steel
Approximately 275 pellets
EPIC 12 GA • 7/8 oz • #7 Bismuth
Approximately 296 pellets
EPIC's bismuth is approximately 24% denser than conventional steel shot, giving hunters and shooters another way to balance pellet count, payload weight and downrange performance.
Pellet counts are approximate and can vary by pellet diameter, material tolerances and individual payload.
WHY EPIC HIGH TENSILE BISMUTH?
Traditional bismuth can be brittle and susceptible to pellet damage during loading and firing.
EPIC High Tensile Bismuth is engineered for increased pellet durability while maintaining the density and non-toxic characteristics that make bismuth an attractive alternative to steel.
Combined with our Light Magnum 12 Wad, consistent payload weights and carefully selected components, the result is a bismuth load developed around pattern quality, consistency and value.
LOWER RECOIL. MORE CONTROL.
The lighter 7/8 oz payload is designed to provide manageable recoil, helping reduce barrel rise and making the load comfortable for higher-volume shooting.
That makes it an excellent option for younger shooters, experienced hunters, recoil-conscious shooters and anyone spending a long day in the field or at the range.
7/8 OZ. 1,350 FPS. HIGH TENSILE BISMUTH.
DOVE. CLAYS. LESS RECOIL. MORE SHOOTING.
IMPORTANT
Always use ammunition appropriate for your firearm and follow the firearm manufacturer's recommendations regarding ammunition and choke compatibility.
Do not assume modern ammunition is appropriate for an older or vintage shotgun based solely on gauge and chamber length. Have older firearms evaluated by a qualified gunsmith before using modern ammunition.
Always pattern your shotgun with the exact ammunition and choke combination you intend to use.
