"QUESTION: Will Hevi-Shot damage my Remington shotgun?
ANSWER: No. When used in modern Remington shotguns, in good working condition, Remington Hevi-Shot will not cause choke wear in low-volume usage such as turkey hunting. However, cosmetic rub marks will occur. Remington's guns with fixed full chokes will show similar results. Remington Hevi-Shot ammunition utilizes the super-tough, high density polyethylene shot container that minimizes contact between Hevi-Shot pellets and the barrel and choke. In addition, the pellets are cushioned at the bottom of the shot container to allow them to flow through the choke more easily.
