Federal PF2046 Premium Wing-Shok Pheasant Forever High Velocity 20 Gauge 2.75" 1 oz 1350 fps 6 Shot 25ea

Federal Premium Wing-Shok Pheasant Forever High Velocity 20 gauge shotshells deliver the speed and pattern density serious upland hunters need when the birds are fast and the ranges stretch. At 1350 fps with a 1 oz payload of #6 shot, these 2.75" loads pack enough velocity and shot density to anchor roosters, hens, and other game birds when you need consistent, reliable performance in the field. Whether you're working over dogs in a prairie grass or pushing through brush, Wing-Shok rounds are built to perform when it counts.

The signature feature here is Federal's hard copper-plated shot. That plating resists deformation in the barrel and maintains pellet hardness through the pattern, which means denser clusters downrange and deeper penetration when pellets connect. On fast-flushing birds and longer shots, that translates to cleaner, more ethical kills. The high-velocity factory load also gives you flatter trajectory and sustained energy, reducing the wind drift that can cost you on open ground hunts.

At 25 rounds per box, Wing-Shok Pheasant Forever is sized for serious hunting seasons, not casual target work. If you run 20 gauge and want ammunition engineered specifically for game birds—with the velocity and pattern control to back it up—this is ammunition built for your gun and your hunt.

Frequently Asked Questions

What game birds are these shells designed for?

Federal designed the Wing-Shok Pheasant Forever line for upland game birds including pheasants, grouse, quail, and other similar species. The #6 shot size and 1 oz payload make these shells well-suited for rooster and hen hunts at typical field ranges.

Will these fit my 20 gauge shotgun?

Yes. These are standard 2.75" shotshells, which chamber in any standard 20 gauge. If your gun is a 3" magnum 20 gauge, these will also cycle in your gun, though the extra chamber capacity won't affect this load's performance.

Why copper-plated shot instead of plain lead?

The hard copper plating keeps pellets round and dense as they travel down the barrel and downrange. That density in the pattern and the extra hardness deliver more reliable penetration on game birds, especially at longer ranges or when birds are angled away.

What's the velocity advantage here?

At 1350 fps, these shells are loaded hotter than standard field loads, giving you flatter trajectory, less wind drift, and sustained energy at distance. That velocity helps close small gaps in shooting angles and range where a standard load might fail to perform.
