Rio Ammunition Game Load RC206MGN 20 Gauge 3" 1-1/4 oz 25 Rounds

Rio Ammunition Game Load RC206MGN 20 gauge 3-inch shotshells are purpose-built for upland game hunters who want reliable, consistent performance in the field. Loaded with 1-1/4 ounces of shot, these shells deliver the knockdown power you need for fast-flying birds and small game without the recoil penalty of larger gauges. Whether you're working behind a pointer through September quail or pushing through dense brush for grouse, Rio's Game Load rounds give you the precision and energy needed to close the deal cleanly.

Rio's shotshell heritage runs deep—over a century of ammunition engineering shows in every round. These shells are built to strict quality standards so you get consistent shot distribution and reliable ignition in any weather or hunting condition. The 25-round box is convenient for a day in the field or for stocking your reloading bench if you're looking to stretch your ammunition budget.

The 20 gauge is the thinking hunter's upland gun: lighter to carry, easier on the shoulder, and more than sufficient for the game it's designed for. At 3 inches, these shells take advantage of the 20's full potential without requiring a heavy, tiring magnum frame. If you've moved to a 20 or inherited a solid used gun in that classic gauge, Game Load rounds are a no-nonsense choice that won't break the bank.
