Federal Black Cloud ammo is a premium line of shotgun hunting ammunition designed with several key features that you must have for you next hunting trip. Starting off this load is the Federal Flitecontrol Flex wad designed to keep more of the payload together for longer distances. Speaking of payload, how about a Flitestopper Steel pellet payload designed to make birds drop from the sky. This waterfowl hunting load is better than even and will help to deliver improved patterns with density and consistency with any choke system. This load is cleaner and more consistent than ever before. Make sure you pick up a box or two for your next waterfowl hunt.

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.
