Remington Ammunition 26676 Nitro Magnum Upland 12 Gauge 2.75" 1 1/2 oz 2 Shot 25 Per Box/ 10 Cs
Remington Nitro Magnum Upland 12 gauge shotshells are built for hunters who demand reliable, hard-hitting performance in the field. The 2.75" 1 1/2 oz load with #2 shot strikes a proven balance for upland game—enough velocity and payload to reach out effectively, without the recoil of heavier magnum loads. These shells use a shock-absorbing polymer buffer surrounding the shot charge, paired with Remington's Power Piston wad design to protect hardened shot pellets all the way down the barrel. The result is a dense, even pattern that gives you the consistency you need when the moment matters.
Whether you're working pheasant cover in October, pushing through late-season brush, or mixing upland with some late ducks, this ammunition delivers the pattern density and pellet integrity that separates solid shooting days from frustrating misses. The buffering system minimizes deformation, keeping your shot string tight enough to anchor birds cleanly at distance. Remington has been refining shotshell performance for generations, and the Nitro Magnum line represents that engineering in a load that's versatile enough for most upland situations without being overkill.
Each box contains 25 shells, and you're getting 10 boxes per case—a practical quantity for the hunter who shoots enough to know what works and stocks accordingly. This is working ammunition, not a specialty round, which means availability and value you can count on season after season.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Remington Nitro Magnum good for upland hunting?
Yes. The 2.75" 1 1/2 oz load with #2 shot is designed specifically for upland game. The buffered shot charge and Power Piston wad deliver dense patterns suitable for pheasant, quail, grouse, and similar birds at effective upland ranges.
Can I use this ammunition in any 12 gauge shotgun?
These are standard 2.75" 12 gauge shotshells, so they'll function in any 12 gauge pump, semi-auto, or break-action shotgun chambered for 2.75" or longer shells. Always consult your firearm's manual to confirm compatibility.
What does the polymer buffering do?
The shock-absorbing polymer buffer surrounds the shot pellets and protects them from deformation as they travel down the barrel. This helps maintain pellet roundness and shape, resulting in tighter, more consistent shot patterns and better penetration.
What's included in a case purchase?
One case contains 10 boxes of 25 shells each, for a total of 250 rounds. Each shell is loaded with 1 1/2 oz of hardened #2 shot in a standard 2.75" magnum case.
