Federal Game Load Ammunition 20 Gauge 2-3/4" 7/8 oz

Federal Game Load 20 gauge shotgun ammunition brings reliable, field-tested performance to upland hunters working smaller frames or younger shooters who benefit from lighter recoil. The 2-3/4" shell delivers a 7/8 oz payload in a package engineered for consistent patterns across woods and open country. Whether you're pursuing pheasant, quail, grouse, or other upland game, Federal's Game Load line combines proven powder and primer technology with quality shot design to keep your patterns tight when it counts.

What sets Game Load ammunition apart is the attention to shot quality itself. Federal formulates their round shot to exacting hardness standards, which translates to denser, more efficient patterns downrange. That means more pellets stay in a lethal concentration on target and fewer stray shots, a real advantage in fast-moving upland situations where clean, ethical kills matter. The brass-plated steel head and single-piece wad design maximize payload performance while keeping the shell reliable through your gun's chamber and action.

The backbone of any good shotshell is consistent ignition, and Federal backs that with select-grade propellant and non-corrosive primers that fire the same way every time. You get the dependability hunters need without the tedium of dealing with corrosive residue after a day in the field. For the 20 gauge shooter who wants proven, no-nonsense ammunition that handles upland game effectively without fuss or inflated cost, Federal Game Load is a natural choice.
