APEX Ammunition is now offering their SmallTown Hunting Blend in 28-gauge load for turkey hunters. The SmallTown Hunting Blend is the foundation of the APEX’s SmallTown lineup. This line was engineered for hunters who demand maximum pattern density, lethal energy, and extended range performance.
This blend pairs TSS #7.5 with TSS #9, which creates a combo with both power and precision. In other words, it makes an ammunition that can deliver devastating close-range impact while maintaining lethal pellet count at distance. It is designed to stay consistent at both close range and longer ranges.
The SmallTown Hunting Blend is the foundation of many of APEX Ammunition products. This blend utilizes clean burning powder and APEX’s Tungsten Propulsion Wad System to deliver the tightest patterns possible and maximum barrel protection.

“We have a long-standing partnership with the team at SmallTown Hunting and this has been one of our most popular turkey lines over the past eight years,” Jason Lonsberry, President and CEO, APEX Ammunition, said. “More 28-gauge turkey guns are being produced now than ever before and increasingly, turkey hunters are opting for sub-gauge because of the reduced recoil, knowing that with TSS they will not sacrifice performance.”

APEX Growth
APEX Ammunition is a veteran-owned company based in Mississippi. Launched in 2017, APEX has grown significantly in the years since then. Their first products focused on waterfowl hunting. That’s because the three founders, Jason Lonsberry, Jared Lewis and Nick Charney, were waterfowl hunters. The company idea even started while on a duck hunt. When traditional ammunition failed but handloaded TSS sealed the deal, the guys were inspired. After the hunt they brainstormed over beer and pizza and APEX was born.
In the years since the company launched, they have branched out to include a wide line of waterfowl and turkey hunting ammunition.
