Kent Cartridge Ultimate Turkey 12 Gauge 3" 1 3/4 oz 1310 fps Diamond 5 Shot - 10 Box/Case

Kent Cartridge Ultimate Turkey 12 gauge 3" shotshells are purpose-built for serious turkey hunters who demand reliable, lethal patterns when it counts. Loaded with 1 3/4 oz of Kent's Diamond Shot pellets at 1310 fps, these shells combine proven shot technology with the velocity needed to reach birds out to extended distances. If you've spent years hunting turkeys, you know the margin between a clean harvest and a wounded bird hinges on pattern density and penetration — exactly what Diamond Shot delivers.

The 5 shot payload in these 12 gauge loads is specifically engineered for turkey hunting. Diamond Shot pellets are harder and rounder than standard lead, which means tighter clustering downrange and deeper penetration through feathers and bone. That translates to denser patterns and more reliable anchor. Whether you're working a spring gobbler with a full choke or setting up a fall hunt, these shells give you the terminal performance you need when the moment of truth arrives.

Kent has earned its reputation in turkey country by focusing on what hunters actually need: consistency. Each shell in this 10-box case is loaded to the same spec, so you're not hunting with variables. You know what to expect from your shotgun and choke combination when you're in the blind. These aren't generic waterfowl loads repurposed for turkeys — they're purpose-designed ammunition that respects the game and the hunt.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these shells suitable for 12 gauge shotguns with 3" chambers?

Yes. These are loaded as 3" magnum shells, so they require a 12 gauge shotgun chambered for 3" ammunition. Do not use in 2 3/4" only barrels.

What is Diamond Shot and how does it differ from regular turkey loads?

Diamond Shot is Kent's proprietary pellet technology. The pellets are harder and rounder than standard lead shot, which improves shot density and penetration downrange — two critical factors for clean, ethical turkey harvests.

What choke should I use with these 5 shot loads?

The product specifications provided do not include choke recommendations. Consult your shotgun's manual and test different chokes to find the pattern density that works best with your setup.

How many rounds are in a case?

Each case contains 10 boxes with 25 shells per box, for a total of 250 rounds per case.
