The Browning BXD Upland 20 Gauge delivers consistent knockdown power for upland bird hunting with precision-engineered shot patterns. This 3-inch magnum load pushes 1-1/4 ounces of #6 shot at velocities optimized for pheasant, grouse, and similar game birds.
What Makes This Different
Browning's BXD Upland ammunition features nickel-plated shot that resists deformation during barrel travel, maintaining pellet roundness for tighter patterns and deeper penetration. The advanced wad design creates consistent shot separation while the high-antimony lead shot delivers 15% better pattern density compared to standard field loads. Premium brass cases ensure reliable extraction in semi-automatic shotguns.
Key Features

Field testing shows this load produces tight, even patterns at typical upland hunting ranges of 25-40 yards. The nickel-plated shot maintains energy transfer through thick cover while the magnum velocity ensures clean kills on fast-flying birds. Weather-resistant primer sealing prevents moisture infiltration during extended hunts in wet conditions.
