This 12-gauge load combines proven steel shot technology with Federal's precision manufacturing to provide hunters with reliable knockdown power when it matters most.
What Makes This Different
Speed-Shok loads generate higher velocities than standard steel shot ammunition while maintaining tight, consistent patterns. The specialized wad design protects barrel surfaces from steel shot damage while optimizing shot column performance. Federal's quality control processes ensure uniform powder charges and consistent velocities shot after shot, delivering the reliability waterfowl hunters demand in challenging conditions.
Key Features
- High-velocity 1,300 fps muzzle velocity for extended effective range
- Premium steel shot construction provides maximum penetration and clean kills
- 3-inch magnum shell length maximizes powder capacity and downrange energy
- 1-1/4 ounce shot charge delivers dense patterns at hunting distances
- #1 shot size optimized for medium to large waterfowl species
