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.
