Overview

Built for turkey hunters who want a purpose-driven load for the spring woods, this Federal Premium option is designed around dense patterning through both standard and ported turkey chokes. It uses copper-plated lead shot, a FLITECONTROL FLEX wad, and buffering to help maintain more consistent patterns, while the roll crimp and clear card wad keep the buffering in place. Offered in 12 gauge, 3" shells with a 1 3/4 oz. payload, it is aimed at hunters looking for a dedicated turkey load rather than a general-purpose shotshell. A portion of the proceeds supports the National Wild Turkey Federation.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Designed specifically as a turkey load, so it is more specialized than a general-purpose 12 gauge shell.
  • The 3" 1 3/4 oz. load may not be the right fit for hunters who prefer lighter-recoiling or smaller payload options.
  • Performance is tied to compatible turkey chokes; results may vary if the shotgun setup is not matched to the load.
  • Pack count is 10 rounds, which is a relatively small quantity for extended practice or multiple hunts.
