Remington Premier Bismuth Waterfowl 12 Gauge 2.75" 1 1/4 oz #5 Shot - 25 Rounds per Box

Remington Premier Bismuth Waterfowl shotgun ammunition delivers non-toxic performance for duck and goose hunters who need reliable knockdown power without sacrificing range or pattern density. This 12 gauge 2.75" load carries 1 1/4 oz of #5 bismuth shot—a denser alternative to steel that patterns tighter and retains energy farther downrange. With a density 22% greater than steel shot, bismuth allows you to use smaller pellet sizes and still maintain effective payload, meaning more shot on target per round. It's the choice for serious waterfowl hunters who want lead-like ballistics in a non-toxic shell.

What sets bismuth apart is versatility. Unlike some specialty loads, Premier Bismuth is safe to shoot in virtually any shotgun barrel—modern choked guns and vintage classics alike—making it a no-worry option whether you're hunting flooded timber or open water. The density-to-velocity balance gives you the penetration and energy retention needed to cleanly take birds at the distances where they count, not just where they're close.

Each box contains 25 rounds, so you get a full day's hunting supply in one purchase. If you've been hesitant about non-toxic ammunition because of cost or performance concerns, Remington prices this load to be accessible without cutting corners on effectiveness. It's a practical, proven choice for any waterfowl season.
