Winchester Super-X 12-gauge shotgun ammunition delivers reliable performance for hunters and sport shooters who demand consistency in the field. This 2.75-inch shell loads 1-1/4 ounces of #5 shot, a versatile load suited to medium-range upland hunting and clay shooting where balanced pattern density and energy retention matter. Super-X ammunition has been a workhorse in American hunting for generations, and this configuration maintains that reputation with quality components and strict quality control.
The #5 shot size strikes a practical middle ground for upland game birds and waterfowl when conditions favor a tighter, longer-reaching pattern than larger shot, or when you need denser coverage than smaller pellets provide. The 1-1/4-ounce payload sits comfortably in standard 12-gauge shotguns and semi-autos, generating moderate recoil while delivering effective downrange performance. Whether you're working a field edge at sunrise or running trap on a Saturday afternoon, this ammo performs without fuss.
You get 100 rounds across 2 boxes—a practical quantity for a season's hunting, a shooting event, or building your ammunition locker. Winchester's manufacturing consistency means you can trust shot-to-shot performance; no chasing flyers or second-guessing your load choice. The Super-X line is stocked by serious shooters for a reason: it works, it's affordable, and it's everywhere.
