250rds – 20 Gauge Federal Personal Defense 2-3/4" 10 Pellet #2 Buckshot Ammo Details

When you think of 20 Gauge ammo, the first material to come to mind is probably lead. Fair enough! But when you choose Federal Premium’s ultra-quality Personal Defense shell for protection or hunting, you’re also recruiting the performance-enhancing powers of copper and plastic.

This shell is loaded with 10 pieces of shot: #2 buck, which is a 0.06” narrower pellet than 00 buck and therefore less likely to pass clean through the target. The pellets are extra hard because they are plated with copper, and further protected against deformation by the soft plastic buffering all around them. It’s all about keeping those beads spherical so they can pattern as efficiently as possible.

This shell’s plastic FliteControl wad is also a worthy ally. It remains with the shot after expulsion from the muzzle, and only detaches from it after traveling a shot distance downrange. The payoff is an even narrower shot pattern, which will spell a real issue for whichever threat or quarry it collides with.

This ammo is made in Minnesota and packaged 50 boxes per case.
