Pick up this 250 round case of Stars and Stripes CS33220 12 gauge 3 inch 1-1/8 oz BB steel shot. Steel shot is non-toxic and legal for waterfowl hunting where lead shot is banned, which makes this load a practical choice for duck and goose season. Stars and Stripes shotshells are imported and let you buy a full season of steel loads in one case.
The CS33220 load is rated at 1,500 fps at the muzzle with a 1-1/8 oz payload of BB steel. Steel is lighter than lead, so a faster load like this helps it carry energy to the birds. BB steel is a large pellet size suited to geese and other big waterfowl, where larger pellets help carry more energy per hit. It is not a turkey, deer, or home defense load. Pattern your shotgun with this ammunition and your choke before opening day, and always follow federal and state waterfowl regulations, including shot size limits.
The 12 gauge is the most common choice for waterfowl hunting and is chambered in pump actions, semi automatics, and over and under shotguns. These are 3 inch shells, so they need a 3 inch or 3-1/2 inch 12 gauge chamber; do not fire them in a shotgun chambered only for 2-3/4 inch shells. Steel shot should only be fired through barrels and chokes rated for steel. Many older shotguns and some fixed full choke barrels are not, so check your barrel markings and the manufacturer’s guidance first.
This case contains 10 boxes of 25 shells each for a total of 250 rounds of Stars and Stripes CS33220 BB steel shot. The ammunition is new production. Store the case in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and keep the boxes sealed until the season so your waterfowl loads stay ready to hunt. Buying by the case means every box in your blind comes from the same load, so your patterns and leads stay consistent through the season.
