This shotshell is loaded with 27 pellets of #4 buck. They are smaller than 00 buck – 0.24” in diameter instead of 0.33” – which is why substantially more pellets fit inside a conventional 2-3/4” hull. But its smaller shot does not mean this round is a softie. It slings its ~1.25 ounce shot column to a brisk muzzle velocity of 1,325 fps, which puts its muzzle energy at approximately 2,179 ft lbs.
This shell’s wad is a conventional felt column, though it still manages to supply an impressively tight pattern thanks to two features. Its hard shot pellets are resilient enough to submit to rapid acceleration without becoming flat and ballistically inefficient, and granulated buffering material within the shot column keeps the lead spheres from forcefully pressing into one another during ignition.
