Federal Prairie Storm FS 20GA 3" 7/8oz #4 Shot 25rd Box

The Federal PFSX207FS4 Premium Prairie Storm FS delivers superior knockdown power for upland game hunting with its innovative FliteControl wad technology. This 20-gauge load combines Federal's advanced shot protection system with optimized velocity to maximize pattern density at extended ranges.

What Makes This Different

The FliteControl wad system sets Prairie Storm apart from conventional upland loads by maintaining shot integrity through the barrel and controlling pellet dispersion downrange. While standard loads scatter shot randomly after leaving the muzzle, this system delivers 25% tighter patterns at 40 yards compared to traditional wads. The nickel-plated shot resists deformation during firing, maintaining pellet roundness for better penetration and energy transfer.

Key Features

• FliteControl wad technology for consistent, tight patterns
• Nickel-plated #4 shot for enhanced penetration and reduced lead fouling
• 3-inch magnum case with 7/8-ounce shot charge for maximum energy
• Federal's proprietary primer system for reliable ignition in all weather
• Brass-plated steel head construction for smooth extraction
• 25 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)
• Compatible with all 20-gauge shotguns rated for 3-inch shells

Field testing demonstrates consistent patterns with 85% pellet retention in a 30-inch circle at 40 yards. The #4 shot size provides optimal balance between pellet count and individual pellet energy for pheasant, grouse, and similar upland species. Weather-sealed crimping prevents moisture infiltration during extended hunting seasons, while the high-antimony shot blend maintains structural integrity through choke tubes up to Full constriction.
