Fiocchi 123SGW4 Golden Waterfowl Waterfowl 12 Gauge 3" 1 1/4 oz 4 Shot 25 Per Box/ 10 Cs

Fiocchi Golden Waterfowl 12 gauge 3" ammunition is built for serious waterfowl hunters who demand consistent patterns and reliable performance in the field. This load pairs a 1 1/4 oz payload of #4 zinc-plated steel shot with the velocities and pattern density waterfowl hunting requires. Each box contains 25 rounds, giving you a solid supply for a day on the water or a weekend duck and goose season.

The zinc-plated steel shot is the foundation here—Fiocchi's approach to uniform pellet construction means tighter, more predictable patterns downrange. That matters when your target is moving and your window of opportunity is narrow. The combination of shot size, payload, and 3" magnum case delivers the knock-down potential experienced waterfowl hunters know they need when conditions get tough.

Fiocchi has spent decades refining waterfowl loads for North American hunting conditions, and that track record shows in the consistency shooters report with their Golden Waterfowl line. If you're running steel shot for ducks and geese—whether you're working shallow marsh, timber, or open water—these rounds offer the reliability to back up your shot placement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What shot size is best for waterfowl hunting?

#4 shot is a proven choice for ducks and is also used for geese depending on range and conditions. It offers a good balance of pellet count for pattern density and individual pellet energy. Always check your local waterfowl regulations for legal shot sizes in your area.

Do these rounds work in any 12 gauge shotgun?

These are 3" magnum shells and will chamber in any shotgun rated for 3" loads. Always verify your gun's chamber length before shooting—your barrel should be clearly marked.

Why use steel shot instead of lead for waterfowl?

Steel shot is required for waterfowl hunting in most U.S. jurisdictions to prevent lead contamination in wetlands and waterways. Zinc-plated steel shot helps reduce corrosion compared to bare steel.

How many rounds do I need for a hunting trip?

That depends on how much you plan to shoot and your hunting style. This 25-round box is a practical single-outing supply for most waterfowl hunters, but many keep extras on hand for restocking between trips.
