Frequently Asked Questions

Is Fasteel 2.0 legal for waterfowl hunting?

Yes. Steel shot is required for waterfowl hunting under federal law in the United States. Fasteel 2.0 loads meet non-toxic ammunition standards for ducks, geese, and other migratory birds. Always verify local and state regulations before hunting, as some areas may have additional shot size or distance restrictions.

What's the difference between #3 shot and other sizes for ducks and geese?

Shot size affects pattern density and effective range. #3 steel shot is a versatile choice for general waterfowl hunting, offering good balance between pellet count and individual pellet energy. Your choice may depend on the species, range, and conditions you typically hunt—consult your waterfowl guide or local hunting regulations for recommendations specific to your region.

Why buy a full case instead of individual boxes?

A case of 250 rounds is ideal for hunters who shoot regularly during the season or want to practice before opening day. Buying in bulk reduces per-round cost and ensures you always have ammunition ready, rather than making frequent store trips.

What shotguns can shoot 3.5-inch shells?

Your shotgun must be rated for 3.5-inch magnum loads. Check your owner's manual or the barrel marking to confirm your gun accepts 3.5-inch ammunition. Many modern waterfowl shotguns are built for 3.5-inch shells, but not all are—using the wrong shell length in an incompatible gun creates a safety hazard and may void warranty.
