Opening day of dove season can burn through more shells than a whole round of trap, and a full case of a proven field load keeps you in the game. This listing is Remington Heavy Dove 12 gauge 2-3/4 inch 1-1/8 ounce #7.5 shot ammo, MPN 28755, sold as a 250 round case. It is made for dove, quail, and other upland birds, and it doubles as a solid load for sporting clays.
Remington rates this load at 1,255 fps. The heavier 1-1/8 ounce charge puts more pellets in the pattern than a light target load, which helps on fast, high doves that require longer shots. Number 7.5 shot is a common size for dove and small upland birds, giving a dense pattern with enough pellet energy for clean kills at normal field ranges. It also breaks clays well at longer sporting stations. This is a field and target load, not intended for waterfowl or any hunt that requires nontoxic shot.
These shells fit any 12 gauge shotgun with a 2-3/4 inch or longer chamber, including the Remington 870 and 1100, Beretta A300 and A400, Benelli Montefeltro and SBE, Browning A5 and Citori, Mossberg 500 and 930, and Winchester SX4. A common question is whether lead shot is legal for dove hunting. Lead is legal for dove in many states, but some states and federal lands require nontoxic shot, so check your local regulations. Another common question is which choke to use for dove. Improved cylinder or modified chokes are popular, with modified helping on longer passing shots.
Remington 28755 is new production ammunition made in the USA. Each shell has a plastic hull and metal head and uses non-corrosive components. The case contains 10 boxes of 25 shells for 250 total from one lot, which keeps your pattern and recoil consistent across a long day in the field or a season of clays.
