Federal High Bird 12-gauge shotgun ammunition delivers the performance upland hunters and clay shooters expect, without the environmental footprint of traditional plastic wads. This 2.75-inch load stacks 1.25 ounces of No. 4 lead shot at 1330 feet per second, engineered to pattern tight and hit hard at the distances where birds test your skill. Whether you're working a prairie for pheasants or breaking targets at the club, High Bird ammo brings consistent, hard-hitting reliability to every shot.
What sets Federal High Bird apart is its fiber wad design. The cellulose-based over-powder wad performs as reliably as conventional plastic, but significantly reduces the plastic debris left behind in the field—a real advantage on high-volume shooting days when you're running dozens of rounds through your gun. This matters on public land and at competition venues where environmental responsibility is increasingly important to hunters and shooters alike.
The shot itself is purpose-built: hardened lead pellets formulated for density and consistency, which means tighter patterns downrange and more energy on target. At 1330 fps, these loads generate the velocity needed for effective range without excessive recoil, making them accessible to shooters of different sizes and experience levels. Federal packages these rounds 25 per box in a convenient 10-box case, so you have plenty of ammunition for a full day in the field or at the range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Federal High Bird 12-gauge ammunition best used for?
High Bird loads are designed for upland hunting and clay target shooting. The No. 4 shot size and 1330 fps velocity make them effective for pheasants, quail, and similar game birds, as well as standard clay competition courses.
What does a fiber wad do, and why does it matter?
The fiber wad is a cellulose-based over-powder component that functions like traditional plastic wads but breaks down more readily in the field. For hunters and shooters who run high volumes of ammunition—especially on public land or at busy ranges—fiber wads mean significantly less plastic debris left behind.
How much shot is in each round?
Each shell contains 1.25 ounces of hardened lead shot, sized at No. 4 pellets.
How many rounds come in a box or case?
