The Winchester Super X Heavy Game Load delivers reliable knockdown power for small game hunting in the compact .410 gauge platform. This high brass 3-inch shell maximizes the .410's potential with an 11/16-ounce payload of #4 shot for effective range and penetration on rabbits, squirrels, and upland birds.
What Makes This Different
Winchester's high brass construction provides 25% more powder capacity than standard .410 loads, generating higher velocities and improved pattern density. The heavy 11/16-ounce shot charge matches what many 20-gauge target loads deliver, giving .410 shooters genuine hunting performance. Superior brass quality ensures consistent ignition and reliable extraction in both break-action and semi-automatic firearms.
Key Features
- High brass 3-inch hull maximizes powder capacity for increased velocity
- 11/16-ounce #4 shot payload delivers 169 pellets per shell
- Muzzle velocity of 1135 feet per second for flat trajectory
- Premium lead shot maintains roundness for consistent patterns
- One-piece plastic wad protects shot column during acceleration
- Reliable primer ignition in all weather conditions
- Compatible with all .410 bore firearms chambered for 3-inch shells
Field performance centers on the #4 shot's versatility across multiple game species. Each pellet carries sufficient energy for clean kills on cottontail rabbits out to 35 yards, while the dense pattern handles fast-flying doves and quail effectively. The high brass construction cycles reliably in semi-automatic shotguns that often struggle with standard .410 loads. Consistent velocities produce predictable drop compensation for hunters who know their gun's performance.
