Federal Ammunition Buckshot 12Ga 2.75 9P #00 25/10

Federal Ammunition Buckshot 12Ga 2.75 9P #00 is a serious choice for shooters who need reliable defensive or duty loads. This 12-gauge ammunition pairs nine #00 buckshot pellets per shell with Federal's reputation for consistent manufacturing and clean powder performance. Loaded in a 2-3/4" plastic hull, it chambers and cycles smoothly across the vast majority of standard 12-gauge shotguns without fuss—no special equipment or adaptations needed.

Nine pellets of #00 buckshot hit with meaningful stopping power at the close-to-mid ranges where buckshot excels. Federal engineers the wad system to manage pellet dispersion, so you get a tighter, more predictable pattern downrange rather than wild scatter. That matters when every shot counts. The load delivers approximately 1325 feet per second, backed by non-corrosive Boxer primers and clean-burning powder formulated for reliable ignition in all conditions.

This is working ammunition for working shooters—no marketing fluff, no overpromising. It handles home defense, duty applications, or serious practice with the kind of dependability that lets you focus on technique rather than worry about your ammo. Federal's tight manufacturing tolerances mean round-to-round consistency, so your patterning and point-of-impact stay predictable across the box.
