Fiocchi High Velocity Ammunition 28 Gauge 2-3/4" 3/4 oz #6 Chilled Lead Shot Box of 25

The Fiocchi 28 gauge high velocity 2-3/4" shotshell in #6 chilled lead shot is built for upland hunters and small-game shooters who need reliable, hard-hitting ammunition in a lighter gauge. At 3/4 oz of shot per shell, this 25-round box delivers the velocity and pattern consistency that matter when you're working thick cover for quail, woodcock, or dove. Fiocchi's reputation for quality components means you'll get uniform velocities and predictable shot placement from load to load—no surprises when the bird flushes.

The 28 gauge appeals to shooters who prefer a more graceful, lower-recoil platform without sacrificing effectiveness. High velocity loads like these compress the distance between you and your target, giving you a faster shot string and better energy delivery on game-sized birds. Whether you're an upland purist or simply prefer the handling of a lighter gauge, these shells are engineered to perform in the field.

Chilled lead shot holds its pattern tighter than soft lead, which means denser clusters downrange and fewer wounded birds escaping into cover. If you run a 28 in your gun cabinet, these are worth stocking for your next hunting season.

Frequently Asked Questions

What upland game is this 28 gauge #6 shot best suited for?

#6 shot in a 28 gauge high velocity load works well for quail, woodcock, dove, and other small upland birds. The 3/4 oz payload and chilled lead construction support patterns tight enough for clean kills at typical upland ranges.

Why choose chilled lead shot over standard lead?

Chilled lead shot is harder and resists deformation as it travels down the barrel and through the air. This maintains a tighter, denser pattern downrange compared to softer shot, improving your odds of connecting cleanly on fast-flushing game.

Is 2-3/4" the standard shell length for 28 gauge?

Yes. The 2-3/4" length is the standard chamber length for most 28 gauge shotguns. Always verify your gun's chamber specifications before purchasing ammunition.

How many shells are in a box?

Each box contains 25 shells, which is the standard upland hunting pack size.
