Rio Dove Load 12ga 2-3/4" 1oz #8 Shotshells

Rio Dove Load Shotshells: Purpose-Built for Wingshooting

Wingshooting presents one of shotgun sport's greatest challenges. Your targets are small, fast-moving, and agile—demanding precision, timing, and the right ammunition.

Engineered for Performance

Rio Outdoors responds to these demands with the Dove Load, a cartridge specifically designed for the wingshooting hunter. This load combines:

• 1 ounce of #8 shot – optimal pellet count and size for clean, ethical harvests on dove and similar upland game
• 1250 fps velocity – sufficient speed for effective pattern density at typical wingshooting distances
• 12-gauge 2-3/4" case – the standard platform for reliable function in most shotguns

What You Get

Each box contains 25 rounds, giving you a practical quantity for a day afield. The #8 shot size provides the balance between pellet count and energy retention that serious dove hunters demand.

The Bottom Line

If you're serious about bringing home your limit, you need ammunition that matches your commitment. Rio Dove Load delivers the payload and velocity needed to convert opportunities into success.
