Details
Do you want to hunt upland game without scattering lead shot all over the place? Perfect! That gives you all the reason you need to order Federal Premium’s Upland Steel series 12 Gauge ammunition. These shells’ steel shot pellets contain zero lead, but they’re still effective at knocking down all kinds of smaller birds!
The main disadvantage to steel shot is its lower density: 8 g/cc, as opposed to lead’s 11 g/cc. That means a steel shot pellet is lighter than a lead one of the same diameter, and therefore incapable of striking with as much force when both are traveling at the same velocity. Federal took the most direct approach to compensating for steel’s primary shortcoming: they gave this shell a brisk 1,375 fps muzzle velocity, which enables its #6 shot pellets to fly flatter and hit harder.
Between its carefully standardized primers and propellant charges and its deformation-proof shot, this ammo is perfectly equipped to deliver the consistently tight patterns which kill small game quickly. And once you’ve scattered this ammo’s steel shot all over the place, you’ll still have 250 empty reloadable hulls!
