- Non-toxic and legal for waterfowl hunting
Patterning your shotgun with a new load is the best way to know how it performs. Shoot a few rounds at a large sheet of paper at 25 to 35 yards with the choke you plan to hunt with, and check that the densest part of the pattern lines up with your point of aim. Trying a tighter or more open choke can make a real difference on fast, close birds.
Store shotshells in a cool, dry place in their original box, and keep loads with different shot sizes separated so you always grab the right shell in the field. Buying enough from the same lot for the whole season keeps velocity and pattern consistent from one hunt to the next, so your practice carries over to the field.
Choosing 12 Ga Goose Loads
When comparing 12 ga goose loads for spring snow goose hunts, speed, pellet size and reliable cycling top the list. Federal 12 ga Speed-Shok loads deliver high-velocity #2 steel with dependable function in semi-automatic shotguns, shot after shot.
Waterfowl hunters have been required to use non-toxic shot in the United States since 1991, and steel has become the most common choice because it is affordable and widely available.
Because steel is lighter than lead, hunters often choose a shot size one or two steps larger than they would with lead and rely on high velocity to maintain pellet energy at decoying distances.

Why Choose Federal 12 Gauge Shotshells
Snow geese are wary, tough birds that often work high and fast over decoy spreads. A high-velocity steel load helps shorten lead and keeps pellet energy up at longer ranges, which matters when birds decoy on the edge of the spread.
Because spring hunts can mean shooting a lot of shells in a day, dependable cycling and consistent performance box after box are just as important as raw speed.
