Standard brass construction and reliable primers ensure consistent ignition across temperature ranges.

Field performance centers on the #7.5 shot size, which provides optimal pellet energy for birds weighing 8-16 ounces at ranges up to 35 yards. The shot charge maintains effective patterns through improved cylinder to modified chokes. Weather-resistant primers function reliably in humid conditions common during early dove seasons and late-season upland hunts.
