Overview
Built for upland and small game hunting, these 28 gauge shells are aimed at hunters who want a straightforward field load in a 25-round box. The high-brass casing, one-piece hinged wad, and 29 Primer are listed features intended to support consistent ignition and tight patterns. With 1 oz of 6 shot and a muzzle velocity of 1205 fps, they suit hunting situations where a compact 28 gauge load is preferred. They can also be used at the range, though the product information is centered on hunting use rather than broad all-purpose shooting.
