Upland Game
Get the lead out – of your 20 Gauge hunting ammo, that is! With Federal Upland Steel shotgun shells, you’ll finally enjoy full and free access to land where lead projectiles are prohibited. You’ll also walk just a little bit taller knowing that you help conserve America’s gorgeous hunting grounds.
If this shell had been loaded with 3/4 ounces of #6 lead shot, it would contain 169 pellets total. But because steel isn’t as dense as lead, this shell stores a whopping 236 individual pellets instead. That alongside steel’s superior rigidity promotes an especially narrow pattern.
Lower-density steel shot pellets do have less striking energy than lead ones when they’re both traveling at the same velocity. That’s why Federal loads this shell to a staggeringly fast muzzle velocity of 1,500 fps. And because a 3/4 ounce shot column is relatively light for the 20ga, this shell won’t generate excessive chamber pressure. It’s a well thought out system, complete with Federal’s high-quality primers, power and reloadable hulls to ensure consistent functionality out in the field!
