The Remington Premier Bismuth Waterfowl 20 gauge 3" shotshell is engineered for hunters who value clean, non-toxic performance without compromise on pattern and range. Loaded with 1 1/4 oz of #5 bismuth shot, these rounds deliver the density and ballistics that waterfowl hunters expect—especially important when you're targeting ducks and geese at distance where shot quality makes the difference between a clean harvest and a lost bird.

Bismuth is the go-to non-toxic alternative in areas where steel is restricted or where you simply want superior pattern consistency. Unlike steel, bismuth doesn't compress as easily, so it deforms less in the barrel and holds tighter clusters downrange. The #5 shot size balances energy retention with pattern density, making these loads effective for both puddle ducks and diving birds. The 3" chamber accommodates modern 20-gauge shotguns and allows Remington to pack meaningful payload into a lighter, more manageable gauge.

These come 25 rounds per box, the standard for shotshell packaging, so you can stock up for the season or run a box through a clay course. If you hunt in bismuth-only zones, or if you've simply found that bismuth patterns better in your gun, Premier Bismuth gives you a premium option that's built on Remington's ammunition heritage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these shells legal for waterfowl hunting?

Bismuth shot is non-toxic and complies with federal waterfowl regulations. Always verify your state and local hunting regulations, as some areas have specific shot type requirements.

What shotguns can fire 3" 20-gauge shells?

Any 20-gauge shotgun chambered for 3" magnum loads will safely fire these. Check your shotgun's chamber markings to confirm it's rated for 3" ammunition. Shooting 3" shells in a gun marked for 2 3/4" only is unsafe.

How does bismuth compare to steel shot?

Bismuth is denser and doesn't compress in the barrel like steel, typically resulting in tighter patterns and more consistent downrange performance. It's the premium non-toxic choice for hunters in areas where steel is restricted or where pattern consistency is critical.

What's included in a box?

Each box contains 25 rounds of loaded 20-gauge 3" shells ready to fire.
