Federal PFX129FS4 Premium Prairie Storm FS 12 Gauge 3" 1 5/8 oz 1350 fps 4 Shot 25ea

Federal Premium Prairie Storm FS is a 12-gauge upland load engineered to deliver consistent, tight patterns through any choke you hunt with. Loaded to 1350 fps with a 1 5/8 oz payload of #4 shot, this 3-inch ammunition blends standard copper-plated lead pellets with Federal's FLITESTOPPER technology to maximize energy transfer, retain velocity downrange, and put more birds in the bag with fewer misses.

The standout feature here is the rear-opening FLITECONTROL FLEX wad, which separates cleanly from the shot charge to eliminate the pellet deformation and erratic patterns that come with cheap wads. That wad design, combined with a 70/30 mix of standard and FLITESTOPPER pellets, produces edge-to-edge pattern consistency—the kind of uniform density that matters when your target is 30 or 40 yards out in tall grass.

FLITESTOPPER pellets themselves are larger and create wider wound channels, which translates to faster, more ethical kills. You're not just shooting farther; you're shooting smarter. This is ammunition built for serious upland hunters who demand reliable performance from their shotgun, whether you're after pheasant, grouse, or quail. Each box contains 25 rounds.

Frequently Asked Questions

What chokes work best with Prairie Storm FS ammunition?

Federal designed Prairie Storm FS to pattern consistently through any upland choke. The FLITECONTROL FLEX wad system ensures reliable, edge-to-edge pattern density regardless of your choke tube choice.

What game is this ammunition suitable for?

Prairie Storm FS with #4 shot is purpose-built for upland hunting—pheasant, grouse, quail, and similar game where 30–40 yard shots are typical. The payload weight and pellet energy make it well-suited to these applications.

How does FLITESTOPPER technology improve performance?

FLITESTOPPER pellets are larger than standard lead shot and create wider wound channels, resulting in faster, more ethical kills. The 30% blend in this load (combined with standard pellets) balances pattern density with terminal performance.

Is this a 2 3/4" or 3" shell?

Prairie Storm FS is loaded in a 3-inch shell, holding 1 5/8 oz of #4 shot at 1350 fps.
