Federal Premium Vital-Shok 10 Gauge Buckshot
Buckshot deserves the same engineering precision as any rifle or handgun round—and Federal Premium Vital-Shok delivers exactly that. This is not commodity ammunition; it's a purpose-built load for serious hunters and those who depend on their shotgun.

Performance Characteristics
Federal's copper-plated pellets are buffered to prevent deformation during firing. This engineering detail matters: it ensures dense, uniform patterns downrange where it counts. Tight patterns mean more pellets on target, translating to reliable stopping power.
The 3.5-inch magnum loading delivers substantial energy retention at distance. Whether you're hunting predators, hogs, or deer, the combination of 18 heavy pellets and consistent velocity gives you the hitting power necessary for ethical, effective hunting.
