Federal Premium Game Load Upland Heavy Field shotshells are built for hunters who demand dependable performance when the flush happens fast and the shot has to count. Whether you're walking fence rows for pheasant, working a dog through thick cover for grouse, or watching a field edge for dove, these loads deliver the pattern density and power needed to bring birds down cleanly.
Each 12 gauge 2¾" shell is loaded with a hard-hitting 1⅛-ounce payload of #7.5 lead shot. This versatile shot size offers an excellent balance of pellet count and energy, making it ideal for a wide range of upland birds and small game. Driven at approximately 1,255 feet per second, the load provides consistent velocity and reliable knockdown performance without excessive recoil, helping you stay on target for quick follow-up shots when birds break unexpectedly.
Federal’s carefully engineered components work together to produce dependable ignition and uniform patterns. High-quality primers and clean-burning propellant ensure smooth cycling and consistent performance in a wide variety of shotguns. The thoughtfully designed wad system helps protect the shot column and maintain tight, effective patterns downrange, increasing your odds when opportunities appear in the blink of an eye.
Heavy Field loads are designed with the realities of upland hunting in mind. From long walks through brush and grass to cold mornings and dusty fields, these shells are built to function reliably when conditions are far from perfect. The combination of proven Federal engineering and practical field performance makes them a trusted choice for hunters who spend serious time in the field.
