Kent TealSteel Precision Steel 12GA 3" 1-1/4oz #6 Shot Waterfowl

The Kent TealSteel Precision Steel delivers consistent waterfowl performance with precision-engineered steel shot and advanced wad technology. This 12-gauge ammunition combines high-velocity steel shot with Kent's proven propellant system for reliable cycling and tight patterns.

What Makes This Different

Kent's TealSteel Precision Steel utilizes computer-graded steel shot for superior uniformity compared to standard steel loads. The advanced wad design creates optimal gas seal and shot protection, resulting in tighter patterns and improved downrange energy retention. Independent ballistic testing shows 15% tighter patterns at 40 yards versus comparable steel loads.

Key Features

• Precision-graded steel shot for consistent pattern density
• High-performance wad system prevents shot deformation
• 3-inch magnum shell delivers 1,400 fps muzzle velocity
• 1-1/4 ounce payload provides excellent knockdown power
• #6 shot size optimal for teal, wood ducks, and medium waterfowl
• Non-corrosive primers ensure reliable ignition in wet conditions
• Brass-plated steel head prevents extraction issues

Field testing demonstrates consistent performance across temperature ranges from 20°F to 100°F. The steel shot composition meets federal non-toxic requirements for waterfowl hunting while maintaining lethal energy at extended ranges. Hunters report reliable cycling in semi-automatic shotguns and consistent patterns through modified and improved cylinder chokes.
