The Winchester Super X Heavy Game Load delivers consistent knockdown power for upland birds and small game with its high brass construction and precision-loaded 1 1/8 oz payload. This 16-gauge ammunition features Winchester's proven #4 shot pattern for optimal range and penetration on medium-sized game birds.
What Makes This Different
High brass construction provides 15% more powder capacity compared to standard low brass shells, generating higher velocities and improved downrange energy transfer. The heavy 1 1/8 oz shot charge creates denser patterns at extended ranges, while Winchester's consistent powder charges ensure shot-to-shot reliability. Quality control standards maintain velocity variations within 25 fps across the entire production lot.
