This 12 Gauge shell is extra-long at 3”, so it gets to hold a behemoth 1-3/4 ounce stack of #5 shot. The 0.12” diameter pellets are a classic choice for hunting pheasant, but you’ll find they’re no less capable of bagging turkeys and bunnies as well. Fiocchi casts hard lead for this shell’s shot, but it is essentially immune to deformation because it is plated with inflexible nickel. Expect an accurate, compact pattern and very deep wound channels when this shot finds its target – no pheasant’s plumage is coarse enough to turn such hard, powerful shot aside.
Having witnessed so dense a spread take down your bird of choice, you’ll notice two things about this shell. First, its hull is still in good enough condition to be handloaded. Second, its primer and powder left your shotgun in impressively clean condition despite having just exploded inside of it!
