Considerations & Trade-offs
- This is a 2 3/4" 12 gauge load, so it is limited to firearms chambered for that specific shell length and gauge.
- It is a 1 Buck load with 16 pellets, which may not suit hunters looking for a different pellet count or buckshot size.
- The product is buffered and unplated, so buyers who prefer plated buckshot should note that difference.
- Pack size is 5 rounds, which is a small quantity for shooters wanting a larger supply in one purchase.
