20 Ga – 2.75″ #8 Shot 1oz – Remington Heavy Dove (28779) – 250 Rounds

The 20 Gauge 2.75″ #8 Shot 1 oz Remington Heavy Dove (28779) load delivers dependable field performance for upland hunting. It uses a 1-ounce payload of #8 lead shot, which produces dense and consistent patterns at practical bird-hunting distances. Because of this pellet size, the load balances pattern coverage and striking energy on fast-moving game. Many hunters prefer #8 shot for dove, quail, and similar small upland birds.

Remington loads this shell to a muzzle velocity of 1,165 fps. This velocity promotes controlled recoil and steady target tracking. As a result, shooters maintain smooth follow-through and accurate shot placement in the field. In addition, the 2.75-inch shell length ensures compatibility with most modern 20-gauge shotguns. Consequently, this load cycles reliably in break-action, pump, and semi-automatic platforms commonly used for upland hunts.

This product ships as 25 rounds per box and 10 boxes per case (250 rounds total). Therefore, buyers receive practical volume for preseason scouting, weekend hunts, and seasonal outings. Remington manufactures Heavy Dove shells with durable hulls, consistent powder charges, and dependable primers. This construction promotes uniform ignition and repeatable velocities from shell to shell. Furthermore, the 1-ounce payload keeps recoil manageable while maintaining reliable pattern density.

While optimized for hunting applications, the Remington Heavy Dove 20 Ga (28779) also performs well for informal clay practice. Ultimately, it delivers smooth recoil, consistent patterns, and trusted Remington reliability in a versatile 20-gauge field load built for confident performance.
