Federal Premium Personal Defense 410 Gauge 2.5" 4 Pellet 000 Buckshot 20 Rounds PD412JGE000

Federal’s Premium Personal Defense .410 is built for one job: reliable, hard-hitting performance when your home and family need it most. These 2.50-inch rounds come loaded as four-pellet 000-buck, each shell packing 7/16 ounce of copper-plated lead for maximum penetration from a compact .410 platform. At roughly 850 feet per second at the muzzle, the load delivers stout energy in a small, easy-to-handle package — ideal for close quarters where controllability and terminal effect matter.

The shells use rugged plastic casings and Boxer primers for consistent ignition and ease of reloading if you recover brass, and they’re packed in practical 20-round boxes sized for home storage or a bedside defense kit. Federal tunes these rounds for predictable feeding and function in modern shotguns chambered for .410, and the copper plating on the pellets helps reduce deformation for tighter, more effective patterning at defensive ranges.

If you want a defensive load that balances compact recoil with meaningful terminal performance, this Federal Premium Personal Defense .410 gives you focused, dependable hits without the over-penetration concerns of some rifle rounds. It’s not a target load — it’s a tool you hope you never have to use, but one you’ll be glad you had when it counts.

The Federal Premium .410 Personal Defense: 2.50" 000-buck, 4-pellet, 7/16 oz copper-plated lead in plastic hulls.
