Federal PWUX2092 Premium Black Cloud 20 Gauge 3" 1oz Waterfowl Shells

The Federal PWUX2092 Premium Black Cloud delivers devastating terminal performance for waterfowl hunters demanding maximum knockdown power from their 20-gauge shotgun. This 3-inch magnum load combines Federal's FliteControl Flex wad technology with a hybrid payload of steel shot and Flitestopper pellets for superior pattern density and stopping power at extended ranges.

What Makes This Different

Black Cloud ammunition stands apart from standard steel shot loads through its innovative hybrid pellet design and advanced wad system. The FliteControl Flex wad opens from the rear, allowing the shot column to remain intact longer for tighter patterns and increased pellet energy at the target. This results in 15% better pattern density compared to conventional steel loads, with devastating terminal performance on ducks and geese.

Key Features

• Hybrid payload combines steel shot with Flitestopper pellets for maximum lethality
• FliteControl Flex wad technology delivers tighter patterns and higher pellet count on target
• 3-inch magnum case provides maximum powder capacity for high velocity performance
• 1 oz payload weight optimized for 20-gauge performance without excessive recoil
• Premium brass-plated steel head and high-strength hull construction
• Waterproof sealed primer and crimp for reliable ignition in wet conditions
• 25 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case for serious waterfowl hunters

Field testing demonstrates consistent 1,300+ fps velocities from standard 28-inch barrels, delivering lethal energy out to 50+ yards on large waterfowl. The steel and Flitestopper pellet combination creates multiple wound channels while maintaining deep penetration through dense feathers and tough waterfowl anatomy. Hunters report clean kills on high-flying Canada geese and diving ducks that would require follow-up shots with standard steel loads.
