Aguila High Velocity 20 gauge birdshot delivers reliable performance for upland hunting and clay target shooting without the recoil of larger gauges. Loaded with 1 ounce of 8 shot in a 2.75\" shell, these rounds offer a balanced shot string for hunting small game and birds at moderate distances. Engineered with clean-burning powders, Aguila ammunition runs cleanly through your gun and leaves minimal fouling in the barrel—a practical benefit when you're spending a full day in the field or at the range.
The 8 shot size provides a denser pattern than larger pellets, making it well-suited for smaller upland gamebirds and clay presentations where you need consistent, predictable performance. At high velocity, these loads deliver the energy needed for clean, ethical kills while staying manageable in recoil—especially valuable if you're shooting 20 gauge for comfort or lighter-recoil shooting. Each box contains 25 rounds; a case holds 10 boxes for hunters who stock up or shoot regularly.
Aguila has built a reputation for affordable, dependable ammunition that doesn't sacrifice quality. These high-velocity loads prove that you don't need boutique pricing to get shells that perform consistently. Whether you're breaking clays on a Saturday or hunting grouse in the uplands, these loads are a no-nonsense option that lets you focus on your shooting, not your ammunition.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is 8 shot best used for?
8 shot is a smaller pellet size ideal for upland gamebirds and clay target shooting. The denser pattern works well at closer to moderate ranges where you need more pellets in the target zone. It's a common choice for hunting small birds like quail and grouse, and for trap and skeet shooting.
Will these 20 gauge shells work in my shotgun?
These are standard 2.75\" 20 gauge shells. They will chamber in any 20 gauge shotgun that accepts 2.75\" ammunition. If your gun is marked for 3\" shells, it will still safely shoot 2.75" loads, but always verify your shotgun's chamber length in the manual or on the barrel before shooting.
How many rounds are in a case?
Each case contains 10 boxes of 25 rounds, for a total of 250 rounds per case.
