Federal P2838 Premium Wing-Shok High Velocity 28 Gauge 2.75" 3/4 oz 1295 fps 8 Shot 25ea

Federal Premium Wing-Shok High Velocity 28 gauge shotshells are built for upland bird hunters who demand reliability and consistent performance in the field. This load pairs a 3/4 oz shot charge with a 1295 fps muzzle velocity—hard-hitting energy in a smaller gauge that doesn't beat you up. The 2.75" hull and 8 shot size make these shells versatile for everything from quail and grouse to woodcock, delivering the tight patterns and penetration that separate clean harvests from frustrating misses.

Wing-Shok ammunition has earned its reputation through generations of upland hunters who trust it to perform when the dog locks up and birds flush. Federal's super-hard copper plating reduces deformation on impact, tightening your shot pattern downrange and extending effective range without requiring magnum loads. If you're running a 28 gauge—whether a classic side-by-side or a modern over-under—you already know the gauge is efficient, pleasant to shoot, and more than adequate for its intended purpose. These loads respect that philosophy.

Each box contains 25 rounds, so you can stock up for a full season or head to the range to pattern your gun before the opener. High-brass construction adds durability and reliability across a range of shotguns. Whether you're new to the 28 or a dedicated devotee, Wing-Shok High Velocity rounds deliver the consistency you need when it counts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these work in my 28 gauge shotgun?

Yes, if your gun is chambered for 2.75" shells. These loads are standard 28 gauge dimensions and will cycle in any 28 gauge shotgun that handles 2.75" ammunition. Always check your shotgun's chamber marking to be sure.

What upland birds can I hunt with 8 shot?

8 shot is well-suited for quail, grouse, woodcock, and similar upland game birds. The smaller pellets deliver dense patterns ideal for these species at typical hunting ranges.

How many rounds are in a box?

Each box contains 25 rounds, allowing you to stock up for hunting season or practice and patterning before opening day.

What does "high velocity" mean in shotshells?

High velocity indicates muzzle velocity—in this case, 1295 fps. Higher velocity generally translates to flatter trajectory and extended effective range, helping you make cleaner, more ethical shots on game.
