Winchester XSM12L2 Drylok Super Steel 12GA 3.5" 2 Shot Magnum

The Winchester XSM12L2 Drylok Super Steel delivers maximum knockdown power for waterfowl hunting in extreme conditions. This 12-gauge magnum load combines Winchester's advanced steel shot technology with weatherproof Drylok sealing for consistent performance when conditions turn harsh.

What Makes This Different

The Drylok Super Steel system uses a specialized wad design that creates tighter patterns and higher velocities than standard steel loads. Winchester's proprietary steel shot manufacturing process produces rounder pellets with fewer deformities, resulting in improved ballistic performance. The sealed case construction prevents moisture infiltration that can cause misfires during extended hunts in wet conditions.

Key Features

• 3.5-inch magnum shell with 1 9/16 oz steel shot payload
• Size 2 steel shot optimized for medium to large waterfowl
• Drylok moisture-resistant case sealing technology
• High-velocity load achieving 1400+ fps muzzle velocity

Field testing demonstrates consistent patterns at extended ranges, making this load effective for pass shooting and late-season birds. The size 2 steel shot provides excellent penetration on ducks and geese while maintaining sufficient energy at longer distances. The weatherproof construction ensures reliable ignition in rain, snow, and high humidity conditions common during waterfowl seasons.
