The Federal Speed-Shok WF1456 delivers consistent waterfowl performance with steel shot technology that meets non-toxic hunting requirements. This 12-gauge load combines proven ballistics with reliable ignition for effective range and clean harvests.
What Makes This Different
Federal's Speed-Shok line utilizes precision-manufactured steel shot that maintains uniform pellet density and flight characteristics. The catalyst lead-free primer system ensures consistent ignition in temperature extremes, while the high-performance powder charge generates velocities that compensate for steel shot's lighter weight compared to traditional lead loads. Quality control standards result in shot-to-shot consistency that hunters depend on during critical moments.
Key Features
- Steel shot construction meets federal waterfowl hunting regulations
- 1-1/8 ounce payload delivers effective downrange energy
- 2.75-inch hull fits standard 12-gauge chambers
- #6 shot size provides optimal pellet count for medium waterfowl

- Federal quality control ensures consistent performance
Field testing demonstrates effective patterns at typical waterfowl ranges, with steel shot maintaining sufficient energy for clean kills on ducks and geese. The 2.75-inch length cycles reliably in semi-automatic shotguns while generating manageable recoil for follow-up shots. Corrosion-resistant steel shot performs consistently in wet marsh conditions without the environmental concerns of lead ammunition.
