Description

The Federal 20 ga 1oz #2 and #4 Steel Blend load is built for hunters who want dependable patterns on ducks and waterfowl. Federal loads 1 oz of #2 and #4 steel shot to a rated 1400 feet per second in a 3 in 20 Gauge shell. Steel shot is non-toxic and legal for waterfowl hunting nationwide, and this high-velocity 3 inch load helps a 20 gauge reach out to decoying ducks with authority.

Built for Waterfowl

• Reliable cycling in semi-automatic shotguns

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.

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 20 Gauge Shotshells

A blended load is a smart choice when you need 20 ga steel duck loads that cover a range of shot distances. This Federal Premium shell combines #2 and #4 steel in a 1 ounce payload at 1400 fps, pairing the reach of larger pellets with the pattern density of smaller ones.

These 20 ga waterfowl loads use non-toxic steel shot that is legal on federal waterfowl areas. The larger #2 pellets carry energy on longer shots while the #4 pellets fill in the pattern for close, decoying birds.

Federal Premium has made ammunition in Anoka, Minnesota since 1922 and is one of the leading names in waterfowl loads. Its steel shotshells are built with consistent components for dependable cycling in cold, wet conditions, and federal 20 ga ammo from this line is a practical choice for duck hunters who prefer a lighter gun.

These shotshells are a good fit for duck hunters using 20 gauge pump, semi-automatic and over-under shotguns chambered for 3 inch shells who want one load that handles both close and longer shots. Always confirm your shotgun is chambered for 3 in 20 Gauge shells, wear eye and ear protection, and follow all federal, state and local hunting laws.
