Hornady American Gunner Reduced Recoil 12 Gauge 00 Buckshot ammunition is designed for shooters who want dependable shotgun performance with improved comfort and control. Built around Hornady’s commitment to precision and quality, this load delivers effective pattern density and reliable terminal performance while reducing felt recoil compared to traditional 00 buckshot loads.
Each round is loaded with eight pellets of swaged high-antimony lead shot manufactured to Hornady’s exacting standards. The high-antimony construction provides increased hardness and durability, helping maintain pellet integrity and improve performance downrange. By carefully controlling pellet size and consistency, this ammunition produces reliable patterns and dependable results when accuracy and effectiveness matter.
The Reduced Recoil 00 Buckshot design is engineered to provide less kick without sacrificing the performance shooters expect from a 12 gauge shotgun. The reduced recoil characteristics make it easier to maintain control during rapid follow-up shots, improve shooting comfort during extended range sessions, and provide a more manageable option for a wide variety of shooters. This load is also designed to cycle reliably in most modern semi-automatic shotguns, providing dependable function when you need it most.
A major feature of this ammunition is the Hornady Versatite® wad system. The Versatite wad is engineered to separate cleanly from the shot column, helping produce excellent pattern density without requiring shotgun modifications or specialized chokes. This advanced wad technology helps optimize pellet performance by maintaining a compact shot column and delivering consistent patterns across a variety of shotgun platforms.
