Fiocchi 123GB6 Golden Waterfowl Bismuth 12GA 3" 1-3/8oz #6 Shot

The Fiocchi 123GB6 Golden Waterfowl delivers premium bismuth shot performance for hunters targeting ducks and geese in sensitive wetland areas. This 12-gauge load combines the density advantages of bismuth with Fiocchi's precision manufacturing to create consistent patterns at extended ranges. Bismuth shot provides 22% greater density than steel while remaining completely non-toxic and environmentally safe.

What Makes This Different

Bismuth shot offers superior ballistic performance compared to standard steel waterfowl loads, with density approaching that of lead shot. The 1-3/8 ounce payload delivers more pellets on target than lighter steel loads, while the 3-inch magnum shell provides the velocity needed for clean kills at longer distances. Fiocchi's Golden Waterfowl line represents their premium non-toxic ammunition series, engineered specifically for challenging waterfowl hunting conditions.

Key Features

• Bismuth shot pellets provide 22% greater density than steel for improved penetration
• 1-3/8 ounce payload delivers maximum pellet count for dense patterns
• 3-inch magnum shell generates high velocity for extended range performance
• #6 shot size optimized for medium to large waterfowl species
• Non-toxic composition safe for all hunting environments and waterways
• Fiocchi hull construction provides reliable extraction in all weather conditions
• 10-round boxes allow for convenient field carry and storage

Field performance demonstrates consistent pattern density at ranges exceeding 40 yards, making this load effective for pass shooting and late-season hunting scenarios. The bismuth composition maintains pellet integrity through barrel constriction, resulting in rounder shot and tighter patterns than deformed steel pellets. Cold weather reliability remains consistent down to sub-freezing temperatures, while the non-corrosive primer and powder combination extends barrel life.
