Federal Premium Ultra Steel 12ga 3" #2/#4 Shot

Federal Premium Ultra Steel Shotshells

Federal Premium Ultra Steel ammunition represents a significant advancement in waterfowl hunting performance. These 12-gauge, 3-inch shells combine proven technologies with premium materials to deliver the pattern density and lethality serious waterfowlers demand.

Key Features

• FLITECONTROL FLEX Wad: The rear-opening design maintains shot column integrity longer, producing extremely tight patterns downrange
• Zinc-Plated Steel Shot: Premium steel construction ensures consistent performance and extended effective range
• Dual Shot Sizes: #2 and #4 shot combination delivers full patterns from smaller pellets while larger shot maintains energy at distance
• 1-1/4 oz Payload: Optimal load for 3-inch shells balances pattern density with recoil management
• 1450 fps Velocity: Consistent muzzle velocity for predictable ballistics

Performance

The combination of the FLITECONTROL FLEX wad and premium zinc-plated steel creates patterns tight enough to extend your effective range significantly beyond standard steel loads. The mixed shot approach—smaller pellets for pattern fill and larger pellets for retained energy—gives you the best of both worlds: dense patterns that connect with birds and sufficient impact energy at longer distances.
