The Remington HyperSonic Steel delivers maximum velocity waterfowl loads engineered for long-range performance and clean kills. This 12-gauge ammunition pushes 1-3/8 ounces of #4 steel shot at hypersonic speeds, extending effective range beyond standard steel loads.
What Makes This Different
HyperSonic technology achieves velocities up to 1700 feet per second, significantly faster than conventional steel loads that typically max out around 1550 fps. The increased velocity translates to flatter trajectory, reduced lead requirements, and devastating terminal performance on waterfowl at extended distances. Advanced powder formulations maintain consistent performance across temperature extremes while generating higher pressures safely within SAAMI specifications.
Key Features
- Hypersonic velocity up to 1700 fps for extended effective range
- 1-3/8 ounce payload of precision-sized #4 steel shot
- 3.5-inch magnum shell length maximizes powder capacity
- Advanced hull construction withstands high-pressure loads
- Consistent patterns through modified and full chokes
- Non-toxic steel shot meets all waterfowl hunting regulations
- 25 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)
Field performance demonstrates the advantages of hypersonic velocity on challenging waterfowl shots. Mallards, geese, and other large birds that would escape standard loads at 50+ yards fall cleanly to HyperSonic loads. The flatter trajectory reduces guesswork on high-flying birds, while retained energy ensures adequate penetration through heavy feathers and bone. Consistent ignition and velocity maintain accuracy in cold weather conditions typical during waterfowl seasons.
