Performance features

As noted in the product description, the use of high quality round lead shot improves pellet uniformity and pattern density. That matters for both defensive scenarios—where consistent pellet distribution increases the chance of stopping an immediate threat—and for range work, where repeatable patterns speed up load development and choke selection.

Heavy duty wads

Heavy duty wads add structural integrity during acceleration and reduce deformation of pellets at high velocities. That preserves pattern shape downrange and reduces variance between shots.

Clean powders & consistent primers

Clean-burning powders minimize residue in the action and barrel, improving reliability during sustained drills. Consistent primers reduce velocity spread, which directly translates to tighter patterns and predictable point of impact.

Load options, gauges, and pricing

Fiocchi offers these loads in multiple gauges to suit different platforms and use cases; in the product listing the model is cataloged as Various, reflecting that range of options. At a street price of $18.99 per box, these loads present a cost-effective balance between performance and value for shooters who demand uniform results without premium pricing.

Operational considerations

Match gauge and shot size to your platform and intended role. These high-velocity rounds perform best out of modern defensive or field shotguns with appropriate choke selection. Routine inspection of patterning at 10–25 yards will confirm the optimal configuration for your needs.
