Fiocchi 16GP5 Golden Pheasant Extrema 16 Gauge 2.75" 1 1/8 oz 5 Shot 25 Per Box/ 10 Cs

The Fiocchi Golden Pheasant Extrema 16 gauge shotshell is purpose-built for upland bird hunters who want reliable, efficient performance in the field. Loaded with 1 1/8 oz of #5 plated lead shot in a standard 2.75" hull, these shells deliver the pattern density and energy needed to cleanly take pheasants, grouse, and similar game birds at practical hunting ranges. Fiocchi's plated shot helps maintain pattern integrity and reduces deformation, so your pellets fly true and hit harder when it counts.

If you're an upland hunter who appreciates ammunition that balances payload, recoil, and effectiveness, Golden Pheasant Extrema shells are a solid choice. The 16 gauge offers a gentler shooting experience than 12 gauge while still moving enough lead downrange—ideal for a day in the brush where you might spend hours behind the gun. These are conventional lead loads, so they're suitable for the vast majority of upland hunting situations where non-toxic shot isn't required.

This case contains 10 boxes of 25 shells each (250 rounds total), so you can stock up for the season without repeated trips to the counter. Whether you reload or simply prefer buying in bulk, the case format offers convenience and value for serious upland enthusiasts.
