The Fiocchi Field Dynamics High Velocity 12-Gauge 2-3/4" #6 Lead load is a hard-hitting, premium field shell engineered specifically for upland bird and small game hunting. The primary frustration when chasing fast, erratic flyers like pheasant, grouse, or rabbits is dealing with patchy, inconsistent patterns downrange. When standard lead shot deforms under high ignition pressures, pellets squash flat and fly wildly off-target, creating massive empty gaps in your spread. Fiocchi completely eliminates this field bottleneck by pairing a boosted 1-1/4 oz. payload of hardened chilled lead with an advanced, controlled-release wad system for an incredibly dense, uniform spread.
The technical advantage lies in maintaining strict pellet roundness and ensuring perfect shot column separation at the muzzle. By hardening the lead through a specialized chilling process, the #6 pellets easily resist flattening and shearing as they blast down the barrel, cutting through aerodynamic drag. This round features a custom, one-piece pre-fractured wad designed to open up uniformly the exact instant it exits the muzzle. This precision timing prevents the wad from disrupting the shot column, virtually eliminating stray "flyer" pellets and ensuring a highly predictable downrange pattern.
Slinging its hunting payload at a crisp muzzle velocity of 1,330 FPS, this 2-3/4" shell delivers plenty of clean-breaking kinetic energy for ethical, one-shot harvests without generating punishing, shoulder-fatiguing recoil. The carefully calculated balance between velocity and payload mass creates a smoother recoil impulse, keeping your muzzle down so you can pull off lightning-fast second shots on rising doubles. Built with premium high-brass heads and rigid hulls, this 25-round box guarantees glass-smooth feeding and flawless cycling in both semi-automatic and pump-action shotguns.
