History 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.

    High power, high quality defense rounds. Too much kick to use for target practice without leaving you beat up.

    Had no issues with these shells. Fires well. No malfunctions.

  • bogertw said:

    Took my new Benelli Nova Pump to the range and the first 4 shells in a row (from 2 separate boxes) fired fine, but jammed the fore-end so I couldn't eject the shell without very forcefully yanking back. I assume the brass casing expanded way more than it should have. I then tried 4 different brands and each worked flawlessly. Put the Rio back in and it jammed immediately. I ended up switching to an over-under gun and they performed fine in that. So, they may work fine for you in a different type of gun, but I wouldn't recommend them for a Benelli pump.

    FedEx either dropped it off on the street or FedEx employee stole the package. I will never order online again
