Hornady 86224 Heavy Magnum Coyote 12GA 3" 00 Buck 10rd Box

The Hornady Heavy Magnum Coyote 12 gauge delivers maximum stopping power for predator control and hunting applications. This 3-inch magnum load pushes 1 oz of 00 buckshot at velocities that exceed standard hunting loads by up to 200 fps.

What Makes This Different

Hornady's Heavy Magnum series utilizes specially formulated powder charges that generate higher pressures than conventional buckshot loads. The result is flatter trajectory and deeper penetration at extended ranges. While standard 00 buck loads typically achieve 1200-1300 fps, these magnum shells reach velocities approaching 1600 fps for superior terminal performance on medium-sized predators.

Key Features

• 1 oz payload of premium 00 buckshot (.33 caliber pellets)
• 3-inch magnum shell length for maximum powder capacity
• High-velocity loading delivers 25% more energy than standard loads
• Versatile shot pattern effective from 20-50 yards
• Low-brass hull construction reduces felt recoil
• Reliable ignition in temperature extremes
• Compatible with all 12 gauge shotguns chambered for 3-inch shells

Field performance shows consistent patterns and reliable cycling in semi-automatic shotguns. The higher velocity maintains pellet energy at distances where standard buckshot begins to lose effectiveness. Hunters report clean kills on coyotes, bobcats, and similar-sized predators at ranges extending beyond typical buckshot limitations. The magnum loading performs reliably in cold weather conditions common during predator hunting seasons.
