Remington Nitro-Steel High Velocity 12 Gauge 3.5" 1 1/2 oz #2 Shot - 25 Rounds/Box

Remington Nitro-Steel High Velocity 12 gauge 3.5" shotgun ammunition is built for serious waterfowlers who demand reliable, hard-hitting performance in the field. These 1 1/2 oz #2 shot loads deliver 1500 fps muzzle velocity from the muzzle, giving you the close-to-long-range pattern consistency that matters when ducks and geese are in range. The zinc-plated, 100% round steel pellets are engineered to fly true and hit hard, shot after shot—the kind of dependable ballistics that separate a successful hunt from a frustrating morning on the water.

What sets Nitro-Steel apart is the proprietary component blend that's been refined specifically for waterfowl hunting. These loads are fully compatible with aftermarket ported and wad-stripping chokes, so you're not locked into factory equipment. Whether you're running a specialized waterfowl gun or upgrading your choke setup, Nitro-Steel adapts to your rig without compromise. The consistent round pellets and velocity mean tighter, more predictable patterns downrange—critical when you're working birds at distance.

Offered in 25-round boxes, Nitro-Steel 3.5" loads give you a practical quantity for a hunt or a range session. The high-velocity design carries energy better than standard loads, which translates to cleaner, more ethical kills. If you're serious about waterfowl and tired of generic steel ammo that doesn't pattern like it should, Nitro-Steel is the load that's built for your expectations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Remington Nitro-Steel loads compatible with my shotgun chokes?

Yes, Nitro-Steel is fully compatible with aftermarket ported and wad-stripping chokes, as well as standard factory chokes. Steel shot requires steel-rated or steel-compatible barrels and chokes, so always confirm your gun is rated for steel before shooting.

What is #2 shot best used for in waterfowl hunting?

The supplied product information focuses on the load specifications—velocity, weight, and pellet construction—rather than specific game recommendations. Shot size choice depends on distance, target species, and local regulations; consult your hunting regulations and trusted waterfowl hunting references to confirm what's legal and appropriate for your situation.

How many rounds are in a box of Remington Nitro-Steel?

Each box contains 25 rounds, making it a practical quantity for a day on the water or range testing.

What makes the pellets in Nitro-Steel different?

Nitro-Steel uses 100% round steel pellets with a zinc plate finish. The rounded shape and consistent sizing contribute to the straight flight and tight patterning the load is designed for, backed by Remington's proprietary component blend.
