The Rio Texas Game Load 36 HV 12 Gauge shotshells are built for hunters who demand dependable performance, hard-hitting energy, and consistent patterning when the shot counts. Designed with upland hunters in mind, these high-velocity loads deliver the speed and impact needed to bring down fast-moving game with confidence.
Built around Rio’s reputation for precision engineering and reliable field performance, the Texas Game Load 36 HV offers the kind of consistency serious hunters look for in every box. Whether you're working through thick brush after rabbits, flushing quail from cover, or tracking pheasants across open fields, these shells are engineered to deliver clean, effective performance.
Each 12-gauge shell measures 2-3/4" and is loaded with a substantial 1-1/4 ounce payload. Paired with a muzzle velocity of 1330 feet per second, this load offers the ideal balance of power and shot density for a wide range of hunting applications. The higher velocity helps reduce lead on moving targets while maintaining the energy needed for reliable knockdown performance at practical hunting distances.
Loaded with #6 shot, these shells are highly versatile in the field. The shot size provides an effective combination of pattern density and stopping power, making it a proven choice for upland birds and small game. From pheasants and grouse to quail, rabbits, and squirrels, this load delivers dependable results across varied terrain and hunting conditions.
Rio has built these shotshells with a focus on quality components and consistent manufacturing standards. That attention to detail translates into reliable ignition, uniform shot patterns, and repeatable field performance. When you're carrying a limited number of shells into the field, every shot needs to count, and the Texas Game Load is built with that reality in mind.
Hunters appreciate these shells not just for their performance, but for their practicality. Each box contains 25 rounds, giving you plenty of ammunition for a full day in the field. The load is well-suited for pump, semi-auto, and break-action shotguns chambered for standard 2-3/4" 12-gauge shells.
Whether you're a seasoned upland hunter or gearing up for the season ahead, the Rio Texas Game Load 36 HV delivers the reliability, velocity, and field-tested performance needed to hunt with confidence. It’s a no-nonsense shotshell built to perform where it matters most—out in the field.
