Kent Cartridge Bismuth Upland 20 Gauge 2.75" 1 oz #6 Shot - 25 Rounds per Box

Kent Cartridge Bismuth Upland 20 gauge shotshell ammunition is built for hunters who need non-toxic shot for upland game and want to shoot a lighter recoil platform. These 2.75-inch shells deliver 1 ounce of #6 bismuth shot—a hard, dense alternative to lead that patterns cleanly and delivers effective energy on upland birds without the environmental footprint. If you're hunting pheasant, quail, or grouse with a 20 gauge and your hunting area requires or prefers non-toxic loads, this is dependable, field-proven ammunition.

Bismuth earned its reputation as a serious non-toxic option because of its density and hardness. Unlike some lead alternatives, bismuth doesn't require magnum velocities or awkward handloading to perform; Kent loads it to sensible pressures in a standard 2.75-inch hull, so your 20 gauge shotgun handles it just like conventional ammunition. The #6 shot size is a versatile choice for upland hunting—large enough to carry energy downrange but still giving you pellet count for reliable pattern coverage in the 20-yard to 40-yard range most upland hunters work in.

Each box contains 25 rounds, so you can stock up for a season or test them before committing to a larger order. Whether you're a dedicated 20 gauge shooter who dislikes magnum recoil or you're switching to non-toxic loads to meet local regulations, Kent Bismuth Upland deserves a spot in your upland kit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I shoot Kent Bismuth Upland in any 20 gauge shotgun?

Yes. These are standard-pressure 2.75-inch shells, so they'll function in any 20 gauge that handles conventional ammunition. No magnum-capacity or special actions required.

What is bismuth shot and why use it?

Bismuth is a hard, non-toxic metal that mimics lead's ballistic performance without environmental or health concerns. It's required in many waterfowl and sensitive habitat areas, but upland hunters choose it to avoid lead entirely or to meet local regulations.

Is #6 shot appropriate for upland hunting?

Yes. #6 is a widely used upland shot size that balances pellet energy and pattern density for pheasant, quail, grouse, and similar game at typical upland distances.

How many boxes do I need for a hunting season?

That depends on how much you hunt and how many shots you fire per outing. One 25-round box is enough for casual weekend hunting; serious upland hunters often buy multiple boxes to ensure they have adequate ammunition for the season.
