Fiocchi High Velocity Ammunition 28 ga 2-3/4" 3/4 oz #9 Chilled Lead Shot Box of 25
$21.29
Fiocchi High Velocity 28-gauge shotshell ammunition delivers the performance small-bore hunters expect in a lightweight, efficient package. Loaded with 3/4 oz of chilled lead shot in size #9, these 2-3/4" shells are purpose-built for upland game and clay sports where a fast, tight pattern matters. At 1300 fps, they offer the velocity needed to extend your effective range without the recoil penalty of larger gauges—ideal if you've committed to 28-gauge for its balance of shootability and downrange energy.
The 28-gauge has loyal followers among experienced hunters and clay shooters who understand its strengths: lighter payload means less fatigue over a day afield, faster handling in thick cover, and tighter patterns at moderate distances. Fiocchi's chilled lead shot and high-velocity load design support that reputation, delivering consistent performance box to box. Whether you're working quail, woodcock, or doves, or breaking clays at the range, this ammunition is built to perform in the field.
Fiocchi has been loading ammunition for generations, and that experience shows in their attention to component quality and consistency. These shells come 25 to the box, a practical unit for practice and hunting alike. If you shoot 28-gauge, stocking a few boxes of this load makes sense—especially if you prefer the ballistic profile and pattern characteristics of high-velocity, smaller-shot configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is 28-gauge ammunition used for?
28-gauge is favored for upland hunting (quail, woodcock, dove) and clay sports. Its lighter recoil and faster handling make it popular with shooters who value reduced fatigue and improved target acquisition over the full payload of 12 or 20-gauge.
What does chilled lead shot mean?
Chilled lead shot is hardened during the casting process, which helps pellets maintain their shape through the bore and retain energy downrange. This typically results in tighter, more consistent patterns compared to softer lead shot.
Are these 28-gauge shells compatible with my shotgun?
These shells are 2-3/4" and chambered in 28-gauge. Confirm your shotgun accepts 28-gauge ammunition and 2-3/4" shells before loading. Never attempt to use ammunition in a firearm that is not marked for that gauge and length.
What is #9 shot size good for?
Number 9 shot is a small pellet size designed for upland game birds at moderate ranges and for clay target shooting. The smaller pellets create denser, tighter patterns than larger shot sizes.
