Rio Ammo Tg3675Tx Top Game Texas Load Standard Velocity 12Ga 2.75" 1-1
Rio Ammo's Top Game Texas Load is a standard velocity 12-gauge shotgun round built for upland game hunting, especially dove season. Loaded in high brass 2.75" shells, this ammunition brings together Rio's in-house component manufacturing with hard-hitting lead shot in gauges proven effective on birds. Whether you're working a field at dawn or an evening hunt, the Texas Load delivers the reliable patterning and consistent performance that come from a maker with deep roots in American shotgun ammunition.
Rio Ammunition has manufactured ammunition in the United States since 2002, operating from headquarters in Dallas and a marshaling point in Marshall, Texas. The company's commitment to domestic production and quality control means every round is built to shoot clean and pattern tight. The Texas Load line specifically honors that heritage with a special edition box that celebrates the brand's connection to the state and hunting culture that shaped it.
If you reload or simply prefer ammunition made by a company that controls its own supply chain from powder to primer, Rio's in-house approach sets it apart. Standard velocity loads cycle reliably in most 12-gauge shotguns, and the lead shot selection is optimized for game-size birds rather than clay targets. This is straightforward, purpose-built ammunition for hunters who know what they want and don't need marketing hype—just solid shells that work.
