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 don’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.

    Very Please and Happy with the performance and quality of the Sterling 12 Gauge 00 Buckshot Ammo! loaded, chambered, and fired smoothly, and easily every shot! Would highly recommend this ammo! Great product at a great price!

  • adam said:

    Slugs are seated in the shell casing so crooked, that the shape of the case itself is warped into an oval instead of circular. Do not buy.

  • Will said:

    These were cheap. All the slugs are crooked in the casings, im not sure how this is supposed to be accurate. result was, as expected, very inaccurate. Fine for close range only.
