Remington Express XLR Upland 12 Gauge 2.75" 1 1/4 oz #6 Shot - 25 Rounds/Box

Remington Express XLR Upland shotgun ammunition in 12 gauge delivers the balanced, reliable performance upland hunters have counted on for decades. This 2.75" load pairs a 1 1/4 oz charge of #6 shot with a high brass head, engineered for consistent patterns and smooth feeding through breakopen, single-shot, and semi-automatic shotguns. Whether you're working through brush for pheasant, quail, or grouse, the XLR line offers the velocity and pattern integrity to connect on birds at useful distances—no oversized magnum needed.

The high brass construction isn't just traditional; it's functional. It provides the rim and structural support shotgun actions depend on for reliable extraction and feeding, especially important when you're climbing terrain or pushing through a full day afield. The #6 shot size hits the sweet spot for upland game—dense enough for effective range, but sized right for clean, ethical kills on birds in the 1- to 3-pound class without destroying meat.

Express XLR ammunition represents value-conscious reloading for serious hunters who shoot enough to notice the difference between generic and purpose-built loads. These aren't magnum shells chasing extreme velocity; they're field loads built around what actually works for upland hunting. Each 25-round box gives you the consistency to pattern your gun and build confidence in your setup before the season opens.

Frequently Asked Questions

What upland birds is #6 shot designed for?

#6 shot is the go-to choice for pheasant, quail, grouse, and similar upland game in the 1- to 3-pound range. The pellet size provides adequate range and energy for clean, ethical kills without the excessive pellet count of smaller shot or the over-penetration concerns of larger sizes.

Will this ammunition work in my semi-automatic shotgun?

Yes. The high brass head and standard 2.75" shell length are designed for reliable function in breakopen, single-shot, and semi-automatic actions. Always consult your shotgun's manual to confirm compatibility with 2.75" ammunition.

How much shot does each shell contain?

Each shell is loaded with 1 1/4 oz of #6 shot—a standard upland field load that balances pattern density and effective range without the recoil and cost of magnum ammunition.

What's the difference between Express XLR and other Remington shotgun loads?

Express XLR is built specifically for upland hunting with field-proven velocity and pattern performance. These are purpose-built loads engineered for the balanced performance serious upland hunters expect—not magnum loads, not budget bulk rounds, but field ammunition that works.
