The B&P 28B1UP75 Upland Game ammunition delivers consistent patterns and reliable performance for hunters pursuing upland birds with 28-gauge shotguns. This Italian-manufactured load combines a 1-ounce shot charge with #7.5 lead pellets in a 2.75-inch hull, providing the knockdown power needed for quail, grouse, and similar game birds.
What Makes This Different
B&P's upland game loads feature precision-engineered wad systems that maintain tight shot patterns while reducing pellet deformation during barrel travel. The company's European manufacturing standards emphasize consistent powder charges and uniform crimping, resulting in shot-to-shot velocity variations typically under 25 fps. This consistency translates to predictable point of impact and reliable cycling in semi-automatic shotguns.
Key Features
- 1-ounce lead shot charge delivers substantial knockdown power for upland game
- #7.5 shot size provides optimal pellet count and energy for birds at typical hunting ranges
- 2.75-inch hull length ensures compatibility with all 28-gauge chamber lengths
- Italian-manufactured with strict quality control standards
- Precision-formed plastic wad system protects shot during acceleration
- Consistent powder charges for reliable velocity and pattern performance
- 25-round box quantity with 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)
Field testing shows these shells maintain effective patterns out to 35 yards, making them suitable for both early-season dove hunting and late-season pheasant work. The 1-ounce shot charge provides more pellets on target compared to lighter 28-gauge loads, while the #7.5 shot size retains sufficient energy for clean kills on medium-sized upland birds. The shells cycle reliably in popular 28-gauge semi-automatics including Benelli and Beretta models.
