The Aguila 28 gauge birdshot load is a classic choice for upland bird hunting and clay shooting where shot placement matters more than raw power. This 28 gauge 2.75" shell delivers a 1 oz payload of 7.5 shot, a medium-sized pellet ideal for quail, grouse, pheasant, and similar game birds at typical hunting ranges. The 28 gauge itself is often preferred by hunters who value less recoil, lighter gun weight, and a faster, more engaging swing than larger gauges—without sacrificing effectiveness when you do your part.
Aguila ammunition is known for consistent performance at a straightforward price point. This load pairs reliable brass cases and standard primers with lead shot, designed to pattern predictably in modern 28 gauge shotguns. Whether you're working a new side-by-side, an over-under, or a pump gun, the 28 gauge has enjoyed a quiet renaissance among serious upland hunters who appreciate its blend of manners and results.
This case includes 10 boxes of 25 rounds each—250 total shells—sized for serious shooters and hunters who like to stock up. Load these into your gun bag before the season opens, and focus on the birds instead of ammunition logistics.
