Winchester Rooster XR 12 Gauge Ammo #4 Shot 1.5 Oz 3" Shell 15rds MN# SRXR1234
Shot-Lok Technology
Deeper Penetration
Devastating Terminal Performance
Winchester Rooster XR ammunition provides the long-range lethality upland hunters rely on when it comes to flushing ringnecks. Featuring new-to-the-world Shot-Lok Technology, Rooster XR ammunition offers tighter patterns and longer shot capability than traditional pheasant loads. Rooster XR ammunition has the knockdown power needed for long range shots that can be challenging for upland hunters looking to push the limits.
Shot-Lok Technology, found in Rooster XR, is a hardened resin that eliminates air space around the pellets preventing movement, which ultimately leads to virtually no pellet deformation. As the shot is fired, the resin fractures, forming a micro-buffer as the shot pattern leaves the gun barrel the pellets remain round and fly straighter and tighter resulting in highly consistent payloads and devastating knockdown at longer ranges.

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.
12 gauge is the most popular and useful shotgun gauges ever made. Suitable for everything from doves to geese. With sporting, military and law enforcement applications. Available in 2 ¾”, 3” and 3 ½”. The magnum lengths are generally preferred for waterfowl and turkey. Most major manufacturers produce guns and ammunition in a very wide septum for 12 gauge. Loads from ¾ oz. to 2 oz. are common with 1 1/8 oz Low base and 1 ¼ oz being the most common loadings. Target loads are normally around 1150 to 1200 FPS with High velocity lead loads tuning up 1350 FPS. Steel waterfowl loads tend to be loaded faster around 1500 FPS to compensate lower density shot. While the 2 ¾” loading is still the most popular ammunition made, nearly all current production guns have 3”or 3 ½” chambers. The shorter ammunition can be safely fired in longer chambers, but not all magnum semiautomatics will function with shorter shotshells.
