Overview

Built for waterfowl hunting, this 12-gauge load pairs a 3-1/2" shell with 1-3/8 oz. of #2 steel shot for hunters setting up for that style of pursuit. It comes packaged in 25-round boxes, making it a practical option for range sessions or stocking up before the season. Kent Fasteel positions this ammunition around quality and reliability, while the steel-shot load keeps it aligned with waterfowl regulations where non-toxic shot is required.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • This is a 3-1/2" 12-gauge load, so it is intended for shotguns chambered for that length; it is not a universal fit for all 12-gauge guns.
  • The #2 steel shot and 1-3/8 oz. load are specific to waterfowl use, which makes this a specialized choice rather than a general-purpose shotgun shell.
  • Muzzle velocity and muzzle energy are not provided, so load selection has to be based on the listed shell specifications rather than performance figures.
  • Each box contains 25 rounds, so hunters planning extended outings may need to account for additional boxes or resupply.
