Remington PL205 Pheasant Loads 20 Gauge 2.75" 1 oz #5 Shot - 25 Rounds/Box, 10 Boxes/Case
Remington
Remington PL206 Pheasant Loads are purpose-built 20 gauge shotshells designed for upland bird hunting where clean, reliable performance matters. Whether you're working a field early season or late in the year, these lead-shot loads deliver consistent velocity and pattern density to handle roosters at practical hunting distances. The 1 oz payload in #6 shot strikes a practical balance—enough mass for authority without excessive recoil in a 20 gauge, making them a solid choice for hunters who value control and repeatable accuracy across multiple shots.
Built on Remington's long history in upland ammunition, these shells come loaded to 1220 fps, a velocity that's proven effective on pheasant-sized birds. The #6 shot size—neither too fine nor too coarse—works well in typical upland cover and across the effective range of most 20 gauge chokes. You get 25 rounds per box, with cases of 10 boxes available for serious season prep or club shoots.
If you've already dialed in your 20 gauge for pheasant, these loads are straightforward ammo that won't surprise you. They're not a premium line, but they're built by a maker that understands upland hunting, and that consistency is worth something when you're counting on your gun to perform.

Yes. The PL206 is a 2.75" shell, the standard 20 gauge length. Any 20 gauge shotgun that will chamber 2.75" loads will safely fire these shells.
These loads use #6 shot, which is a common choice for pheasant. It provides good pattern density and energy across typical upland ranges. If you're unsure whether #6 is right for your hunting situation, talk to other hunters in your area—local conditions and gun choice often guide that decision.
