Description
Remington's Wingmaster HD line is built around one core idea: heavier payloads with better energy retention mean more pellets stay lethal longer. This 2.75-inch load pairs a 1-1/4 ounce charge of size 4 tungsten shot with velocities pushing 1325 feet per second, giving you the performance of a magnum load in a standard chamber shotgun.
Why Tungsten Stands Apart in Wingmaster HD
Tungsten is fundamentally different from what came before. At 11.6 grams per cubic centimeter, Remington's tungsten blend runs about 6 percent denser than lead and roughly 49 percent denser than steel. That density translates directly into retained energy downrange, which is everything when you're threading shots through wind at distance or trying to put a clean finish on a hard-to-kill goose. The pellets themselves are perfectly round and uniform, which means they pattern predictably and penetrate reliably.
Wingmaster HD Performance on Target
What separates this load from cheaper alternatives is the combination of pellet energy and pattern density working together. You get more pellets staying in the vital zone at distance, and each individual pellet carries more punch when it arrives. The smooth, polished shot creates dense, efficient patterns that reward better gunmanship and choke selection. This is the kind of load where you notice the difference between hitting and connecting when conditions get tough or birds are coming in high.
These come 10 rounds to a box, which is standard for tungsten waterfowl loads. Made in the USA and designed specifically for serious duck and goose hunting where every shot counts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Wingmaster HD tungsten safe to use in my shotgun?
Yes. Remington's tungsten blend in Wingmaster HD is engineered to be nearly as soft as steel, which means it won't damage barrels or choke tubes the way some harder tungsten products can. The pellets also pattern similarly to lead, so your familiar choke constrictions and hold points work as expected.
How does Wingmaster HD compare to steel shot?
Tungsten is significantly denser, retaining velocity and energy much longer than steel. With Wingmaster HD, you get the penetration and pattern density that makes distant birds more ethical targets. Steel requires larger shot sizes to achieve similar results, which spreads your pattern and reduces pellet count on target.
What size 4 shot means and what it's best for?
Number 4 shot strikes a practical balance for general waterfowl work. It gives you a denser pattern than larger sizes while maintaining adequate penetration for ducks and geese at typical hunting ranges. The size 4 load in Wingmaster HD is particularly effective at distance because the tungsten density keeps those smaller pellets working harder than they would in steel.
Can I use the 2.75-inch Wingmaster HD in a 3-inch gun?
Yes, any shotgun chambered for 3-inch shells will safely cycle 2.75-inch loads. Many hunters appreciate running the standard length because it reduces recoil and cycles more smoothly in semi-auto guns while still delivering excellent performance on waterfowl.
