Considerations & Trade-offs
- This is a 3" 20 gauge load, so it’s best matched to shotguns chambered for that shell length and gauge.
- The load is described for close-range upland use, so it may not suit hunters looking for a more versatile longer-range option.
- The mixed payload and FLITECONTROL FLEX wad are specific to this load, which can be a benefit, but they also make it a more specialized choice than a standard field load.
- With 25 rounds per box, it’s a practical hunting quantity, though frequent shooters may need to plan for multiple boxes.
