Rio Ammunition BlueSteel Royal 20 Gauge 3" 1 oz #4 Shot - 25 Rounds/Box, 10 Boxes/Case

Rio Ammunition BlueSteel Royal 20 gauge ammunition delivers reliable steel shot performance for waterfowl hunters and sport shooters who need dependable, nontoxic loads. Each 3-inch shell packs 1 ounce of #4 shot in a consistent, hard-hitting package. Whether you're working over decoys at first light or running clays in the afternoon, BlueSteel Royal ammunition offers the velocity and pattern consistency that serious 20 gauge shooters expect—without the price tag of premium upland loads. This case includes 10 boxes of 25 rounds each (250 rounds total), so you're stocked for a full season or a serious range day.

Rio has built a reputation on producing quality shotshell ammunition at fair prices, and BlueSteel Royal is no exception. The 20 gauge is a favorite among hunters who value reduced recoil and lighter gun weight without sacrificing effectiveness. Steel shot performs differently than lead, and #4 is a proven choice for waterfowl where steel is required by law. The 3-inch hull delivers the power you need to reach distant birds, while the 1-ounce payload keeps shooting comfortable over a long day.

Grab a case and you'll have plenty of ammunition for whatever your hunting or shooting schedule throws at you. Whether you're a daily hunter, weekend competitor, or someone who likes to keep a deep reserve on hand, buying by the case means fewer trips to reorder and better value than picking up boxes one or two at a time.
