Federal WF143BB Speed-Shok Waterfowl 12 Gauge 3" 1 1/8 oz BB Shot 25 Per Box/ 10 Cs

Federal Speed-Shok 12 gauge 3" BB shotgun ammo is built for serious waterfowl hunters who demand both clean shooting and reliable downrange energy. This steel shot load delivers 1 1/8 oz of BB pellets per round, engineered to anchor ducks and geese when it counts. Whether you're working a marsh at first light or grinding through a season of multiple setups, Speed-Shok ammunition gives you the ballistic performance and gun reliability that separate a good day from a great one.

What sets this ammo apart is Federal's attention to what happens inside your shotgun. The fast-burning powder formulation cuts residue buildup in your barrel and action—meaning less fouling, easier cleaning, and more reliable cycling across multiple boxes. That matters when you're shooting a box or more per season. The high-performance primer ignites consistently, shot after shot, so you're not left wondering if the next round will fire as cleanly as the last.

Each box contains 25 rounds, making it an economical choice for pattern testing, practice, or filling your magazine before the hunt. Steel shot requires different shot sizes and velocities than lead, and Federal's optimization for this 3" 12 gauge load is designed to keep the energy on target and the ballistics predictable. For hunters who respect their equipment and want ammunition that respects their gun back, Speed-Shok delivers.
