Can you imagine a world without steel? There would be no ice skates. No roofing nails. No 2008 Suzuki SX4 subcompact sport sedans, either! But worst of all, there would be no Federal Premium Upland Steel 12 Gauge hunting ammunition, either.
Scope this 2-3/4” shell’s 1-1/8 ounce shot column. Know what you won’t see in there? If you said “steel,” then you couldn’t be more wrong. Those hard and round #5 shot pellets are made entirely out of steel, which is why you can let ‘em fly in areas where lead shot’s a big no-no.
“But wait,” you are thinking. “Isn’t steel only around 70% as dense as lead, and therefore not as effective as lead shot at range?” You are correct – if the steel shot is moving just as fast as the lead shot it’s being compared to. But when Federal loads a shotshell to a lightning-hot muzzle velocity of 1,400 fps, it more than compensates for steel’s lower density.
Made in Minnesota! Suitable for a wide range of upland game! Yours with shipping so fast that it can also be described as “lignthing-hot” even if you aren’t incentivised to endorse LuckyGunner.com in the same way as me, the product description writer!
