Overview

Built for turkey hunters who want a purpose-driven load for the spring woods, this Federal Premium option combines copper-plated lead shot with the FLITECONTROL FLEX wad to help deliver dense patterns through standard and ported turkey chokes. Buffering is included to help reduce pellet deformation, while the roll crimp and clear card wad are designed to keep that buffering in place. It’s a straightforward choice for hunters looking for a dedicated turkey shell in a 12 gauge 2 3/4" load. A portion of the proceeds also supports the National Wild Turkey Federation.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Designed as a turkey load, so it is purpose-built for that use rather than a general-purpose shotshell.
  • The 2 3/4" shell length and 1 1/2 oz. payload may not suit hunters who prefer a different recoil or load profile.
  • Performance is tied to compatible turkey chokes; results may vary depending on the choke used, including standard and ported options.
  • The package contains 10 rounds, which is a relatively small count if you want a larger supply for extended practice or multiple outings.
