Federal WF1453 Speed-Shok 12 Gauge 2.75" 1 1/8oz #3 Shot 25rds

The Federal WF1453 Speed-Shok delivers consistent waterfowl performance with high-velocity steel shot engineered for clean kills at extended ranges. This 12-gauge load combines precision manufacturing with proven ballistics to maximize effectiveness during critical hunting moments.

What Makes This Different

Speed-Shok ammunition utilizes Federal's proprietary steel shot technology that maintains velocity better than standard steel loads. The optimized powder charge pushes 1 1/8 ounces of #3 steel shot at velocities exceeding 1,400 fps, delivering 15% more downrange energy than comparable waterfowl loads. Federal's quality control ensures consistent shot patterns and reliable ignition across temperature extremes.

Key Features

• High-velocity steel shot reaches 1,400+ fps muzzle velocity for extended effective range
• 1 1/8 ounce payload of #3 steel shot optimized for medium to large waterfowl
• 2.75-inch hull length fits all 12-gauge shotguns including 2.75" chambers
• Precision-formed steel shot maintains consistent spherical shape for tight patterns
• Non-corrosive primers ensure reliable ignition in wet conditions
• 25 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)
• Lead-free construction meets all federal and state waterfowl hunting requirements

Field testing demonstrates consistent 30-inch patterns at 40 yards with modified choke tubes. The #3 shot size provides optimal penetration on ducks, geese, and upland birds while maintaining sufficient pellet count for reliable hits. Steel shot construction eliminates lead toxicity concerns while delivering the knockdown power required for ethical harvests. Temperature-stable powder maintains velocity consistency from early season heat to late-season cold.
