These loads are specially optimized for long shots at very large waterfowl. They are more lethal than any steel or non-toxic load, especially at longer distances. They are specially buffered to ensure a tight pattern, and the superior lethality of Hevi Shot pellets lets you shoot a smaller pellet size in order to send substantially more pellets after your bird. 3" - These magnum loads are designed for the hunter who wants more speed and energy and is willing to sacrifice a bit of pattern to get it. They still pattern far more tightly than any steel or non-toxic load. You can shoot a much smaller pellet size in order to send substantially more pellets after your bird.
Gauge: 20 Type: Hevi-Shot Length: 3" Ounces: 1 1/4 oz Shot Size: 7.5 Muzzle Velocity: 1250 fps Rounds-box: 10 Rounds Per Box, 10 Boxes Per Case
The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
The 20-gauge follows the 12-gauge as America's second-most popular shotgun gauge. And, with modern shotshells, continues to gain ground. The 20-gauge has a bore diameter of .615-inch, with modern shells in either 2 3/4 "standard" or 3-inch "magnum" length. Most modern shotguns are chambered to handle both. Payloads vary from light-recoiling 5/8-ounce loads all the way to heavy turkey loads carrying 1 5/16 ounces of shot. Standard 2 3/4" loads for targets and upland birds are normally 7/8 or one ounce. At its very best the 20-gauge does not have the capability of a 12-gauge...but with modern shot, wad columns, and chokes it doesn't give up much, and it can be built into a much lighter shotgun developing less recoil. Virtually all manufacturers offer 20-gauge guns, and they are available in all action types and for virtually all shotgunning sports. The 20-gauge joins the 12, 28, and .410 as one of four events in skeet competition, and is becoming increasingly popular for sporting clays.
