Fiocchi Golden Waterfowl Bismuth 28 Gauge 3" 15/16oz #4 Shot Ammo

The Fiocchi Golden Waterfowl Bismuth 28 gauge delivers premium non-toxic performance for waterfowl hunters who demand consistent patterns from smaller gauge shotguns. This 3-inch magnum load pushes 15/16 ounce of #4 bismuth shot at velocities that rival traditional lead loads while meeting all federal waterfowl hunting requirements.

What Makes This Different

Bismuth shot offers 24% greater density than steel, creating harder-hitting pellets that retain energy downrange better than steel alternatives. The Golden Waterfowl line features precision-manufactured bismuth pellets that maintain spherical shape for consistent ballistics. Fiocchi's Italian manufacturing ensures uniform powder charges and reliable ignition across temperature extremes.

Key Features

• 15/16 ounce bismuth shot load in efficient #4 pellet size
• 3-inch magnum case maximizes powder capacity for 28 gauge platform
• Non-toxic bismuth pellets approved for all waterfowl hunting areas
• High-quality brass-plated steel case head for reliable extraction
• Consistent 1300+ fps muzzle velocity for flat trajectory
• 10 rounds per box packaging for convenient field carry
• Compatible with all 28 gauge shotguns chambered for 3-inch shells

Field performance shows effective patterns out to 40 yards on ducks and geese, with bismuth's density advantage maintaining lethal energy at extended ranges. The #4 shot size provides optimal balance between pellet count and individual pellet energy for medium waterfowl. Bismuth's softer composition compared to steel reduces barrel wear while delivering superior knockdown power compared to steel shot of equivalent size.
