Sterling Exclusive 12 gauge 2.75" #8 shot shells are built for upland bird hunting where every shot counts. Whether you're working through mountains after francolin, snipe, or other game birds, these 25-round boxes (sold in cases of 250) deliver the balance of pattern and recoil control you need on long walks where birds flush unpredictably and second chances are rare. The #8 shot size is a natural choice for medium-range upland work, offering enough pellet count for clean kills without over-penetrating on smaller species.
Sterling engineered these shells with a quick-scattering wad design that promotes efficient pellet separation downrange, helping you achieve reliable patterns in the field. The soft pellet construction keeps recoil manageable—important when you're covering ground on foot and need to stay steady for follow-up shots. Maximum ignition ensures consistent ignition shot to shot, so you can focus on bird work rather than worrying about misfires.
At 2.75 inches, these shells fit any standard 12 gauge shotgun. The 25-round box format is convenient for a day afield, while the 250-round case option lets you stock up for a full season of upland hunting.
