100rds – 12 Gauge Winchester Super-X 2-3/4" 1-1/2oz. #6 Shot Ammo Details

Winchester doesn’t like paying extra for metals they don’t need. (That’s generally a good way of doing business.) Why, then, does all 1-1/2 ounces of this 12 Gauge turkey load’s #6 lead shot wear slick copper plating? One reason: it helps kill turkeys.

Copper’s function is similarly simple: it protects the shot pellet from deformation. And what kind of pattern do rounder shot pellets take the form of? A tight one. And what do shot pellets do when they are more aerodynamic? Conserve more velocity, and strike their target harder because of it. And what do harder shot pellets do when they hit turkey meat? They go deeper and deadlier.

Winchester’s Super-X series ammo has been going hard since its introduction over 100 years ago. This modern shell’s uniform shot, clean-burning powder, tight-patterning wad, and surefire 209 primer all show why the brand is so popular among sportsmen the nation over.
