The Fiocchi High Velocity 28 gauge 3" shotshell delivers classic lead-shot performance in a gauge that doesn't get the attention it deserves. Built around a 1 ounce payload of #8 lead shot, this round offers a natural fit for upland hunters who value a lighter recoil impulse without sacrificing pattern density on birds at typical hunting distances. 28-gauge shooters know the appeal: less powder, less kick, and a gun that points like an extension of your arm. Fiocchi has been loading ammunition since 1876, and their High Velocity line carries that heritage into modern field use with consistent, reliable performance that won't let you down in the field.
The #8 lead shot size makes these rounds ideal for hunting upland game birds—pheasant, quail, and grouse fall naturally to this classic load. The 3" hull gives you the chamber capacity to work with modern 28-gauge shotguns while the high-velocity designation means you're getting solid velocity from a modest payload. This is ammunition designed for shooters who understand that smaller gauges in the right hands are just as effective as their larger cousins, and considerably more pleasant to shoot all day.
Each box contains 25 rounds, so you'll have enough for a solid day in the field or at the range without overloading your vest. If you're running a 28-gauge and you've been searching for quality lead shot that actually matches your gun's design, Fiocchi High Velocity is a proven choice that works.

Frequently Asked Questions
What game is 28-gauge #8 shot best suited for?
#8 lead shot from a 28 gauge is ideal for upland bird hunting, including pheasant, quail, and grouse. The smaller pellets provide a denser pattern at typical hunting distances without excessive recoil, making it a favorite among hunters who prefer lighter shotguns and a gentler shooting experience.
Will these shells work in my 28-gauge shotgun?
These are loaded in a 3" hull, so they will chamber in any 28-gauge shotgun rated for 3" shells. If your gun is marked for 2.75" shells only, do not use 3" ammunition. Always verify your shotgun's chamber length before loading.
How many rounds are in a box?
Each box contains 25 rounds of Fiocchi High Velocity 28-gauge ammunition.
