Rio RCHV1675 16 Gauge Game Load 2.75" 1-1/8oz #7.5 Shot 25rd Box

The Rio RCHV1675 Game Load delivers consistent patterns and reliable performance for upland bird hunting in 16-gauge shotguns. This high-velocity load combines proven components with precise manufacturing to provide hunters with dependable ammunition for small game pursuits. The 1-1/8 ounce payload of #7.5 shot creates effective patterns at typical hunting ranges.

What Makes This Different

Rio's game loads feature carefully selected powder charges that generate consistent velocities across temperature ranges. The company's quality control standards ensure uniform shot patterns and reliable ignition. Unlike basic field loads, these cartridges utilize premium components including consistent primer compounds and properly buffered shot charges that maintain pellet roundness during firing.

Key Features

• High-velocity 16-gauge load with 1-1/8 ounce shot payload
• #7.5 shot size optimal for quail, dove, and small upland birds
• 2.75-inch hull length fits standard 16-gauge chambers
• 25 rounds per box packaging for convenient field carry
• Brass-plated steel head construction for reliable extraction
• Consistent powder charges for uniform ballistic performance
• Quality primer systems ensure dependable ignition

Field performance centers on the #7.5 shot size, which provides adequate penetration for small game while maintaining sufficient pellet count for effective patterns. The high-velocity designation indicates faster muzzle velocities that extend effective range compared to standard velocity loads. Hunters targeting dove, quail, and similar-sized birds benefit from the balanced payload that delivers clean harvests without excessive meat damage.
