Fiocchi 12 ga 1oz #7 Steel Dove – Proven 12 Gauge Dove and Quail Loads, 1200 fps, 25 Rounds

Description

The Fiocchi 12 ga 1oz #7 Steel Dove load is built for hunters who want dependable patterns on doves and quail. Fiocchi loads 1 oz of #7 steel shot to a rated 1200 feet per second in a 2-3/4 in 12 Gauge shell. Because it uses steel shot, it is a practical choice for dove fields and public land where lead is restricted.

Why Choose the Fiocchi 12 ga 1oz #7 Steel Dove

Built for Upland Birds

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.

Dove season opens early in September across much of the country, and it is one of the most popular hunts in America because it combines fast shooting with plenty of opportunity. Doves are small, quick and prone to sudden changes in direction, so a shell with a consistent pattern and manageable recoil helps hunters stay on target through a full limit. Quail flush close and fast, and the same #7 load handles them well at typical upland distances.

Why Choose Fiocchi 12 Gauge Shotshells

Hunters who need 12 ga steel dove loads for fields with non-toxic shot rules will find this Fiocchi shell a dependable choice. One ounce of #7 steel at 1200 fps gives a dense pattern for doves and quail without punishing recoil during a high-volume opening day.

These 12 ga steel shotshells are built with quality components and tuned for consistent velocity, so your pattern stays predictable from the first box to the last. Steel shot is harder than lead, so it holds a tighter pattern and many hunters open their choke one step compared to lead loads.

Fiocchi has made ammunition in Italy since 1876 and loads shotshells for American hunters at its plant in Ozark, Missouri. Its Field Dynamics line covers upland and small-game loads, and fiocchi 12 ga ammo is chosen by many hunters for consistent velocity and clean-burning powders that keep actions running smoothly through a long day in the field.

These shotshells are a good fit for dove and quail hunters shooting 12 gauge pump, semi-automatic and over-under shotguns, especially on public land or managed fields that require non-toxic shot. Always confirm your shotgun is chambered for 2-3/4 in 12 Gauge shells, wear eye and ear protection, and follow all federal, state and local hunting laws.
