Overview
Built for 12 gauge use, this 2.75-inch buckshot load is intended for hunters and shooters who want a straightforward defensive or close-range option in a familiar shell length. Each round carries 9 pellets of 1 buck shot and is listed at 1250 fps, giving it a clear role where controlled shot placement and practical range matter more than long-range performance. Packaged 25 rounds per box and 10 boxes per case, it suits range practice, stocking up, or keeping a ready supply on hand.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- This load is limited to 12 gauge shotguns chambered for 2.75" shells, so it is not a fit for firearms requiring a different gauge or shell length.
- It is a 1 buck load with 9 pellets, which makes it a specialized choice rather than a general-purpose shotgun shell.
- The listed muzzle velocity is 1250 fps, but no additional performance details are provided here, so suitability should be confirmed against your intended use.
- Packaging is by the box and case quantities listed, which may be more than needed for occasional use or testing.
