APEX Ammunition’s Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Habitat Waterfowl Blend Named “Best Overall Duck Load” by Outdoor Life
APEX Ammunition’s Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Habitat Waterfowl Blend (WS-3) has been named “Best Overall Duck Load” by Outdoor Life.
Alex Robinson, Outdoor Life’s Editor-in-Chief, tested numerous brands of shotshells over several seasons – in the field and on patterning boards – and had this to say about the APEX load.
“I think the best way to sing the praises of Apex’s WS-3 is to tell you that I keep a few of these loads in my blind bag at all times, just in case I find myself in a little shooting slump. If I happen to miss a couple ducks, I’ll throw these loads in and, almost without fail, birds begin to fall. I’ll acknowledge that part of this is psychological. Confidence is key to good shooting. But check out the pattern that the Apex WS-3 load throws and you’ll see why I feel so confident while shooting them.”
“Apex mixes its own No. 3 steel pellets with a quarter ounce of No 8 TSS pellets. While in flight, those little number 8s fill in the gaps between the larger steel pellets and make phenomenal patterns….Because it holds such a dense pattern at distance with a Modified choke, I think it’s the ultimate option for shooting ducks at 25 to 50 yards. Could you kill ducks beyond that range with this load? Almost certainly. But why would you want to?”
“It is quite an honor for Outdoor Life to name our Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Habitat Waterfowl Blend “Best Overall Duck Load,” and we appreciate the time and effort Alex put into his testing,” said Jason Lonsberry, President and CEO, APEX Ammunition. “As avid waterfowl hunters, we understand how important exceptional patterning is for clean kills and put a lot of time and money into R&D to ensure we deliver top-performing shotshells across the board.”
