Fed Pr Storm 12ga 3" #6 Lead 25/250

Federal Premium Storm 12 gauge shotgun shells in #6 lead are built for upland hunters who demand reliable, consistent patterns in the field. These 3-inch loads combine Federal's proven wad technology with a hybrid pellet system designed to deliver edge-to-edge coverage and energy retention that keeps birds in the bag. Available in convenient 25-round boxes or full 250-round cases, Storm shells are engineered to pattern cleanly through a variety of chokes, making them a dependable choice whether you're working tight cover or open country.

What sets Storm shells apart is the blend of standard copper-plated lead pellets mixed with FLITESTOPPER pellets. This combination creates uniform shot spread while the specialized pellets generate larger wound channels on target. The rear-opening FLITECONTROL FLEX wad manages pellet release and stabilization downrange, translating to fewer cripples and more effective harvests across typical upland distances.

For hunters running a dedicated upland gun or stocking up for a season of pheasant, quail, and grouse work, Storm ammunition delivers the performance and value Federal is known for. The 250-round case format makes it easy to keep your reloader's bench or gun safe well-stocked without frequent resupply runs.
