Federal Power-Shok Ammunition 12 Gauge 2-3/4" Buffered 00 Buckshot 9 Pellets Box of 5

Federal Power-Shok 12 gauge 2-3/4" buffered 00 buckshot is a workhorse shotgun load built for hunters and defenders who need reliable, pattern-tight performance when it counts. This nine-pellet load delivers the shot alignment and consistency you expect from Federal's proven Power-Shok line, whether you're hunting hogs and deer, running predator control, or keeping your home secure. The combination of the Triple Plus wad system and granulated plastic buffer ensures each pellet stays uniform in shape, so your pattern stays tight downrange.

The buffered design is the key difference here—that granulated plastic buffer absorbs recoil energy and helps maintain pellet integrity through the barrel and into the target. That means less deformation, more predictable patterns, and better terminal performance than unbuffered alternatives. For a hunting or defensive load, consistency in pattern is everything, and Federal engineered this one to deliver it.

You get five rounds per box, so stock up for practice and hunting season. If you run a home defense shotgun or need a buckshot load that patterns well at practical distances, the Power-Shok line has earned its reputation among shooters who don't have room for error.
