Remington Express Magnum 12 Gauge 2-3/4" 00 Buckshot, 12 Pellets, Box of 5

Remington Express Magnum 12 gauge 2-3/4" 00 buckshot delivers reliable performance for deer hunting at a price point that won't stretch your budget. This load pairs proven buckshot design with smart engineering: cushioning material behind the shot column works with granulated polymer buffering to keep pellets round and tight in flight, translating to denser, more consistent patterns on target. Each shell carries 12 pellets of 00 buck, pushing out at 1290 fps—enough velocity to maintain energy across typical hunting distances without unnecessary recoil punishment.

If you're serious about shotgun deer hunting but skeptical of premium pricing, Remington Express Magnum slots into that sweet spot between budget loads and specialty ammunition. The buffering system isn't fancy, but it works: round pellets stay round through the barrel, which means less fliers, tighter grouping, and more confidence when the moment comes. This is ammunition built by people who understand hunters need to shoot more than once a season without emptying their wallet.

The 2-3/4" shell length keeps recoil manageable even in lighter firearms, and the 12-pellet count gives you a reasonable spread without overshooting your effective range. Whether you're hunting from a blind, working thick timber, or practicing on the range, this load punches above its price class when pattern consistency matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this 2-3/4" shell work in my 12 gauge shotgun?

Yes, 2-3/4" shells are the standard length for 12 gauge shotguns. If your gun is marked for 2-3/4", 3", or "3" Magnum," it will chamber this load safely. Always verify your shotgun's chamber length before purchasing any ammunition.

Is Remington Express Magnum good for deer hunting?

This load is designed specifically for hunting use. The 12 pellets of 00 buck at 1290 fps deliver energy suited to deer-sized game at typical shotgun hunting ranges, particularly in areas where rifles aren't legal or practical.

What makes the pattern tighter than basic buckshot?

The combination of heavy cushioning behind the shot column and granulated polymer buffering helps the pellets maintain their round shape as they travel through the barrel. Rounder pellets create more uniform, consistent patterns—fewer fliers and tighter grouping downrange.

How many shells are in a box?

This box contains 5 shells. It's ideal for testing patterns on your specific shotgun or topping off your hunting load before the season.
