Overview
Built for upland and small game hunting, this 12-gauge load combines a 2.75-inch shell with 1 1/8 oz of 6 shot for a practical field setup. Winchester pairs the load with a low brass case, a one-piece hinged wad, clean-burning powder, and a reliable ignition system to support consistent performance. The 25-round box makes it a straightforward option for hunters who want a familiar, proven shotshell for routine outings. It is a lead load, so it fits best where that type of ammunition is appropriate and permitted.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- This load is set up for 12-gauge shotguns chambered for 2.75-inch shells, so it is not a fit for guns that require a different shell length.
- The 1 1/8 oz, 6 shot payload is geared toward upland and small game use, which means it is more specialized than a general-purpose shotgun load.
- As a lead shot load, it may not suit hunters who need a non-lead option for local regulations or personal preference.
- The box contains 25 rounds, so larger-volume shooting or extended field use will require multiple boxes.
