It comes in 3" shells with a listed muzzle velocity of 1300 fps and 10 rounds per box. For hunters who want a purpose-driven shotgun load for coyotes and similar applications, it offers a straightforward option without extra complexity.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- This load is built around close-range use, so it is not the right choice if your setup calls for longer-distance performance.
- The 3" 12-gauge shell and 1 1/2 oz payload may not be suitable for every shotgun or hunting application, so chamber and load compatibility should be confirmed before use.
- The product description emphasizes minimal pelt damage out to 50 yards, which still leaves a defined range window rather than a general-purpose all-distance option.
- Each box contains 10 rounds, so it is a relatively small quantity if you are stocking up for extended practice or multiple outings.
