The Remington Nitro-Steel High Velocity 12-gauge delivers consistent waterfowl performance with steel shot construction that meets federal non-toxic requirements. This 2.75-inch shell pushes 1-1/4 ounces of #4 steel shot at high velocity for effective range and knockdown power on ducks and geese.
What Makes This Different
Remington's Nitro-Steel formula generates 15% higher velocity than standard steel loads while maintaining consistent shot patterns. The precision-formed steel pellets resist deformation during barrel travel, delivering tighter groups at extended ranges. Advanced powder chemistry provides reliable ignition in cold weather conditions when waterfowl hunting demands peak performance.
Key Features
- High-velocity steel shot exceeds 1,400 fps muzzle velocity
- 1-1/4 ounce payload of precision-formed #4 steel pellets
- 2.75-inch shell length fits all 12-gauge shotguns
- Non-toxic steel construction complies with federal waterfowl regulations
- Consistent crimp design ensures reliable feeding and extraction
- Temperature-stable powder performs in extreme weather
- 25 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)
Field testing shows effective patterns out to 40 yards on waterfowl, with #4 shot size providing optimal balance between pellet count and individual pellet energy. The steel shot construction eliminates lead contamination concerns while delivering lethal performance on ducks, geese, and upland birds in areas requiring non-toxic ammunition. Consistent velocities across temperature ranges maintain point of impact reliability during early and late season hunts.
