Considerations & Trade-offs
- Loaded with #6 lead shot, so it is intended for upland game use and may not suit hunters who need a different shot type or size for other applications.
- The 2-3/4" shell and 1-3/8 oz load are specific to compatible 12 gauge setups, so chamber and load preferences should be checked before use.
- Packaged in a 25-round box, which may be less convenient for hunters who prefer larger case quantities for extended outings or practice.
- The listing does not provide muzzle energy, so performance comparisons beyond the stated 1475 fps are limited.
