Frequently Asked Questions

What is Diamond Shot and why does it matter?

Diamond Shot is Kent Cartridge's proprietary lead pellet formulation. The shot is highly polished and harder than standard lead, which means it retains its shape through the pattern and transfers more energy on impact. The result is more uniform pellet distribution, tighter patterns, and more consistent performance from shot to shot.

Is this load suitable for upland game hunting?

Yes. The #6 shot size and 1 1/2 oz payload at 1420 fps are designed for upland bird hunting, including pheasants, quail, and similar game. The load's emphasis on pattern consistency makes it effective on both early-season and wary late-season birds.

What 12 gauge shotguns will shoot these shells?

These are standard 2.75" 12 gauge shells and will function in any 12 gauge shotgun chambered for 2.75" ammunition. Check your gun's documentation to confirm chamber length compatibility.
