Federal Prairie Storm FS 20GA 2.75" 1oz #5 Shot 25rd Box

The Federal Premium Prairie Storm FS 20-gauge ammunition delivers devastating stopping power for upland game with its innovative FliteControl Flex wad technology. This specialized load combines traditional lead shot with Federal's advanced wad design to create wider wound channels and improved lethality on pheasants, grouse, and other upland birds.

What Makes This Different

The FliteControl Flex wad system separates from the shot column at a predetermined distance, allowing the payload to spread in a controlled pattern while maintaining energy transfer. Unlike standard field loads that rely solely on shot placement, Prairie Storm creates multiple wound channels through its unique shot design and wad technology. The 1-ounce payload of #5 shot provides optimal penetration for medium-sized game birds at typical upland hunting ranges.

Key Features

• FliteControl Flex wad technology for controlled shot separation and pattern density
• 1-ounce payload of premium #5 lead shot optimized for upland game
• 2.75-inch hull length compatible with all 20-gauge shotguns
• Consistent 1,350 fps muzzle velocity for reliable ballistic performance
• 25 rounds per box packaging for extended hunting sessions
• Federal Premium brass heads and high-quality hulls for reliable extraction
• Designed specifically for pheasant, grouse, quail, and similar-sized game birds

Field performance demonstrates effective patterns out to 40 yards with sufficient energy retention for clean harvests. The specialized shot design creates larger wound cavities compared to standard round pellets, reducing the likelihood of wounded birds escaping. This ammunition performs consistently in both semi-automatic and over/under shotguns, cycling reliably in gas-operated actions while maintaining accuracy in fixed-barrel guns.
