The Remington Wingmaster HD 12 Gauge delivers maximum knockdown power for waterfowl hunting with its premium tungsten-bronze shot and high-velocity performance. This 3-inch magnum load pushes 1.5 ounces of #2 shot at velocities that maintain lethal energy at extended ranges.
What Makes This Different
Wingmaster HD ammunition features Remington's proprietary shot hardening process that creates 25% harder pellets than standard lead shot. The tungsten-bronze composition maintains pellet roundness through the barrel and choke, delivering tighter patterns and deeper penetration. Unlike standard waterfowl loads that lose energy quickly, this ammunition maintains consistent velocities beyond 50 yards.
Key Features
- 1.5 ounces of hardened tungsten-bronze #2 shot for maximum stopping power
- 3-inch magnum case generates high velocities for long-range performance
- Premier STS hull with Power Piston wad system ensures consistent ignition
- Hardened shot pellets resist deformation for tighter patterns
- Compatible with all 12-gauge shotguns chambered for 3-inch shells
- 10 rounds per box packaging for convenient field carrying
- Nickel-plated brass head prevents corrosion in wet conditions
Field testing demonstrates consistent 1,300+ fps muzzle velocities with this load, maintaining lethal energy on large ducks and geese at ranges exceeding 45 yards. The hardened shot composition produces pattern densities 15-20% tighter than conventional loads through modified and full chokes. Hunters report reliable cycling in semi-automatic shotguns and consistent ignition in extreme cold conditions.
