Overview
Built for upland hunters, this 12 gauge load is aimed at pheasant hunting where consistent patterning and solid shot performance matter. The Copper-Lokt copper-plated lead shot with high antimony content is intended to support tighter patterns and deeper penetration on tough birds, while the 2.75" shell and 1 3/8 oz 6 shot payload keep it in a familiar field-ready format. With a listed muzzle velocity of 1300 fps and 25 rounds per box, it suits hunters looking for a dedicated pheasant load for regular days in the field.

- It is sold in 25-round boxes, so larger-volume shooters may need to plan for multiple boxes.
