Remington 12 Gauge Steel Shot Ammo - 3" 1-1/4oz #2 x #6, 1450 FPS, 25 Rounds

Remington's 12 gauge steel shot ammo in 3-inch magnum loads combines two shot sizes in every shell—a duplex load designed to pattern effectively across typical hunting ranges. With #2 and #6 steel shot blended together and driven at 1450 feet per second, these rounds deliver the density you need for reliable hits on waterfowl from close range out to distance. The 1-1/4 ounce payload packs serious pellet count in a drab hull that won't spook birds on the water.

The duplex concept solves a real problem for waterfowl hunters: larger shot maintains energy and penetration at range, while the smaller pellets create denser patterns for close-quarters opportunities. You don't have to choose between two loads or swap shells mid-hunt. Remington's proprietary four-petal wad design protects your barrel and cycles reliably across different choke tubes, so whether you're shooting a modified, full, or specialty waterfowl choke, these shells will perform consistently.

Built on Remington's ULTRA CAPACITY STEALTH hull with a reinforced base, these cartridges are designed for the punishment of a full day in the marsh. The drab finish minimizes reflection—details matter when waterfowl are studying your spread. Each box contains 25 rounds, giving you a practical hunting quantity without excess weight in the blind.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a duplex steel shot load better for waterfowl hunting?

The combination of two shot sizes in one shell gives you flexibility without changing ammunition. The larger #2 shot retains energy and penetration at longer ranges, while the #6 shot creates denser patterns for close work. This makes duplex loads effective across the distance range of typical duck and goose shooting without forcing you to pick one or the other.

Will these shells work in my shotgun with different choke tubes?

Yes. Remington's four-petal wad design is engineered to cycle reliably across a wide range of choke designs, so whether your shotgun is fitted with a modified, full, or other waterfowl choke, these shells will pattern consistently.

Are these shells legal for waterfowl hunting?

Steel shot is required for waterfowl hunting under federal law. These shells are loaded with steel shot and are suitable for that purpose. Always verify your local and state waterfowl hunting regulations before purchasing ammunition.

How many rounds come in a box?

Each box contains 25 rounds, providing a practical quantity for a day in the field or range session.
