Federal PF1635 Wing-Shok 16 Gauge 2.75" 1-1/8oz #5 Shot 25rd

The Federal PF1635 Premium Wing-Shok delivers consistent knockdown power for upland bird hunting with its copper-plated shot and high-velocity design. This Pheasant Forever edition combines Federal's proven buffered shot technology with optimized velocities specifically engineered for pheasant and similar upland game.

What Makes This Different

Federal's buffered shot design reduces pellet deformation during firing, maintaining rounder pellets that fly straighter and hit harder than standard loads. The copper-plated #5 shot resists deformation better than lead-only alternatives, delivering 15% tighter patterns at extended ranges. This translates to cleaner kills and fewer crippled birds compared to economy loads.

Key Features

• Copper-plated #5 shot maintains pellet integrity for consistent patterns
• Buffered shot column reduces deformation and flyers
• High-velocity 1,330 fps muzzle velocity extends effective range
• 2.75-inch hull fits all 16-gauge shotguns including vintage guns
• 1-1/8 ounce shot charge provides optimal pellet count for upland birds
• Pheasant Forever partnership supports habitat conservation
• Federal's quality control ensures consistent velocities shot-to-shot

Field performance shows tight, even patterns out to 40 yards with modified and improved cylinder chokes. The copper plating helps pellets retain energy downrange, crucial for clean kills on tough birds like late-season roosters. This load performs consistently in temperatures from 20°F to 90°F, maintaining velocity standards across hunting seasons.
