The Kent Cartridge K123FS321 Fasteel 2.0 delivers consistent waterfowl performance with precision-plated steel shot and advanced wad technology. This 12-gauge load combines 1-1/8 ounces of #1 steel shot in a 3-inch hull for extended range capability on ducks and geese.
What Makes This Different
Fasteel 2.0 technology features zinc-plated steel shot that maintains roundness better than standard steel pellets, resulting in tighter patterns and improved downrange energy retention. The advanced wad design creates consistent shot separation while protecting barrel integrity. Independent ballistic testing shows 15-20% tighter patterns compared to conventional steel loads at 40 yards.
Key Features
- Zinc-plated steel shot maintains spherical shape for consistent ballistics
- 1-1/8 ounce payload of #1 shot optimized for medium to large waterfowl
- 3-inch hull length provides increased powder capacity for higher velocities
- Advanced wad system reduces barrel wear while improving pattern density
- Weatherproof brass-plated steel head prevents corrosion in wet conditions
- 25 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)
- Compatible with all 12-gauge shotguns chambered for 3-inch shells
Field performance testing demonstrates reliable cycling in semi-automatic shotguns and consistent ignition in temperature extremes from -20°F to 140°F. The #1 shot size provides optimal penetration on mallards, pintails, and Canada geese at ranges extending to 50 yards. Pattern density remains effective in crosswinds and adverse weather conditions typical of waterfowl hunting environments.
