Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for 12 gauge, 3-inch chambers, so it is not a fit for guns that require shorter shells.
- The 1 1/4 oz load and 1500 fps velocity may not suit hunters who prefer a lighter-recoiling or slower-moving shell.
- This is a 4 shot load, which is a specific choice for waterfowl setups rather than a general-purpose option.
- Box count is 25 rounds, so it may be less convenient for high-volume practice or extended outings without extra boxes.
