Talking Turkey When It Comes to Shotgun Shells

Talking turkey when it comes to quality shotgun ammunition at affordable prices, a company based in Turkey, fittingly enough, has hit the mark and found a place at the table with baths, sandwiches, and a Thanksgiving staple in the popular lexicon.

Pass the ammo, please.

Avic is the Turkish word for hunter. It’s also the surname of the founder of an ammunition company in Turkey. The company manufactures Avci shotgun shells for hunting and shooting.

Armory Farm carries a line of Avci shotgun cartridges that are among the top choices when you want your best bang for a buck.

There’s Avci No. 3 one and one-fifth grand shot known for its versatility. Not only is it great for bagging large geese and ducks, but it can also be used for self defense. The lead shot has a velocity of 1,300 feet per second (fps) and can penetrate drywall. A case of 250 rounds sells for $101.

With a reputation for producing top notch ammo for 12-gauge shotguns, Avci maintains that reputation with its Super Game No. 7 one and one-eighth lead shot. It’s ideal for small bird hunting and has a velocity of 1,250 fps. A case of 250 rounds is priced at $92.

While Avci shells are right on target when it comes to fowl encounters, they’re not limited to animate flying objects.

The Avci Extreme Trap load is a top cartridge for hitting clay targets. It offers distance (1,300 fps) and accuracy and a low recoil impulse that allows for a second shot at the target. The 7.5 seven-eighths lead shot is available in a case of 250 rounds for $90.

Back to talking turky. The Avci Super Game No. 5 one and one-eighth ounce lead shot, traveling at 1,250 fps, is designed for turkey and duck shoots. It features eye catching polished brass and reliable primers and wad. It’s also effective at closer range for self defense. A case of 250 rounds sells for $91.50.
