Overview of 12 Gauge Shotgun Shells

The 12 gauge is the most used shotgun shell today, and it has existed in its current cartridge configuration since the late 1800s. Twelve gauge rounds, often seen as 12ga, are used in various situations, including hunting birds and small game, recreational shooting, and home defense.

These ammunitions provide various options in close quarters but donโ€™t perform well at long-distance shots because the projectiles quickly lose their velocity; they require a close-range target, typically 45 yards or less.

    Have always used Sellier and Bellot 9mm ammo but thought I would give the 12 gauge ammo a try. Glad I did wasn't disappointed shot 50 rounds so far and no duds.

  • Chunk said:

    I trust for home defense and use for practice since price is great and they always perform exceptional . It's such a beautiful time to be alive when we can order this to our front door with a click of a button .......

  • SirWilliam said:

    Great shells with excellent quality however they do measure long. I have a Mosseberg 590 Tactical, normally holds 8 in the tube. These shells are longer than normal 2 3/4โ€ and thus can only load 7. Need another 1/2โ€ to get 8 in.
