High Quality Tungsten Shotshells

Apex leads the industry with the design and manufacture of the game-changing ultra-high-density Tungsten Super Shot (TSS). An industry first, TSS is made from 18.1 g/cc density tungsten alloy, which means more shot in the same traditional payloads–that more pellets down range and better patterns. APEX utilizes this ultra-high-density tungsten shot in many of their shotshells, including their Waterfowl TSS, Waterfowl Tungsten/S3 Steel™ Blend, and Predator TSS hunting loads.
Apex’s enduring commitment to design, test, evaluate and introduce new ideas that better capture the experience is the driving force of their continuing innovation.

Championship Duck Calls
Makers Call Company was brought to life through the joining of two passionate and talented call-makers—Travis Ward and Colton Thompson.
Travis—brought up in the heritage of duck hunting in West TN—was baptized early on in waterfowl history, especially call making. His calls are known for their unique, strong sound.
Colton joined the waterfowling game later than most, but jumped in head-first and immediately made an impact. He has numerous titles under his belt, including: Alabama State, “Callapalooza” Call Makers Build-off, and the Grand-American Regional. His calls are known for their aggressive tone, and unique builds.
Together, they’ve combined their strengths to become a staple in the duck call game. Together, they’ve created Makers Call Company to #BeHeard.
