The Winchester Super X Heavy Game Load delivers consistent knockdown power for upland birds and small game in the compact 28-gauge platform. This high brass ammunition combines Winchester's proven powder formulations with precision-formed shot to maximize effectiveness at extended ranges where lighter loads fall short.

What Makes This Different

The heavy game load configuration pushes 3/4 ounce of #6 shot at higher velocities than standard field loads, creating denser patterns and deeper penetration. While typical 28-gauge shells carry 5/8 ounce payloads, this load's extra 1/8 ounce translates to approximately 25 more pellets per shell. The high brass construction provides consistent ignition and chamber pressures for reliable cycling in semi-automatic shotguns.

Key Features

  • 3/4 ounce shot charge delivers 25% more pellets than standard 5/8 ounce loads
  • High brass hull construction ensures reliable extraction and ejection
  • #6 shot size balances penetration with pellet count for versatile game taking
  • 2.75-inch shell length fits all 28-gauge chambers including vintage guns
  • Winchester 209 primer provides consistent ignition in all weather conditions
  • Precision-formed lead shot maintains roundness for tighter patterns
  • Factory-crimped closure prevents shot migration and ensures consistent performance
Field testing demonstrates effective patterns out to 40 yards on quail, dove, and woodcock. The #6 shot size penetrates sufficiently for clean kills on birds up to pheasant size while maintaining enough pellet density for consistent hits on fast-flying targets. Semi-automatic shotguns cycle reliably with the high brass cases, while the moderate recoil remains manageable for extended shooting sessions.
