Winchester Bioammo Lead Game Pheasant Shotshells 12 Ga 2-3/4" 1-1/4 Oz 1250 Fps #4 25/Ct

Winchester Bioammo Lead Game Pheasant Shotshells deliver a hunting load built for upland birds with environmental responsibility in mind. These 12-gauge 2-3/4" shells are loaded with 1-1/4 oz of lead shot in #4 pellet size, traveling downrange at 1250 fps—a classic pheasant-hunting velocity that balances pattern density and energy retention at typical field distances. Each 25-round box is designed for hunters who want to put birds down cleanly while stepping away from single-use plastic.

What sets Bioammo apart is the commitment to shooting without the plastic footprint. The wads and cases are fully bio-compostable, so you're not leaving behind debris in the field or at the range—an increasingly important feature for conscientious hunters who care about the land they hunt. Winchester hasn't compromised on ballistics or reliability to achieve that sustainability: these shells pattern reliably and perform consistently across typical pheasant-hunting situations, whether you're working a fence line or pushing through cut corn.

Pheasant hunters respect predictable, proven ammunition. The #4 shot size has been a field standard for ringnecks for generations, and the moderate velocity of this load keeps recoil manageable across multiple birds per day while maintaining the pattern integrity you need at 25–40 yards. If you're looking for a premium hunting shell that performs without the environmental compromise of conventional plastic components, Bioammo Game delivers on both counts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What shotgun chokes work best with these pheasant loads?

Winchester Bioammo Game Pheasant Shotshells are designed to pattern reliably across standard shotgun configurations. For #4 shot at pheasant distances, modified and improved cylinder chokes are typical choices, but your results will depend on your specific gun. We recommend pattern-testing at your hunting distance before the season opens.

Are these shells safe to shoot in any 12-gauge shotgun?

These are standard 2-3/4" 12-gauge shotshells and will function in any 12-gauge shotgun rated for 2-3/4" ammunition. Always verify your shotgun's chamber length and recommended ammunition type before shooting.

What makes the bio-compostable components different from standard shotshells?

The wads and cases are fully bio-compostable, meaning they break down naturally over time without leaving behind the plastic debris typical of conventional ammunition. This is particularly valuable for hunters and shooting preserves concerned with environmental stewardship.

How many birds can I expect to take with a 25-round box?

That depends on your shooting skill, the birds' behavior, and hunting conditions. A 25-round box is generally considered enough for a full day of pheasant hunting for one person, though experienced hunters often bring extra shells.
