20 Ga – 3 Buck – Federal Power-Shok (F2033B) – 250 Rounds

A 20 gauge buckshot load gives smaller framed shooters and hunters a lighter recoiling option that still delivers a solid payload. This listing is Federal Power-Shok Magnum 20 gauge 2-3/4 inch #3 buckshot, MPN F2033B, sold as a 250 round case. Buying 20 gauge buckshot in bulk means you can pattern your shotgun, practice with the same shells you rely on, and keep a supply for both the deer stand and home defense. A full case also means every shell in your safe comes from the same factory load.

Each shell holds 1 oz of #3 buckshot, which works out to 20 pellets per shot. Smaller buckshot sizes like #3 fit more pellets into a 20 gauge shell than larger sizes, which puts more hits on target at close range. Federal rates this load at 1,200 fps. That combination of pellet count and velocity is why many hunters trust a 20 gauge for deer and hogs inside typical buckshot range.

This load is built for deer and hog hunting where buckshot is legal, and for home defense with a 20 gauge shotgun. It fits pump, semi-auto and break-action 20 gauge shotguns with 2-3/4 inch or 3 inch chambers. Many shooters ask whether 20 gauge is enough for home defense, and a 20 pellet #3 buck load is one of the stronger answers in the gauge. Patterning at the distances you expect to shoot is always worth doing. The 250 round case covers practice, patterning and a well stocked safe for the whole household.

Federal Power-Shok F2033B is made in the USA, a domestic load, and it is new production ammunition, not reloads. Each shell uses a plastic hull with a metal base and a battery cup primer. Shell length is 2-3/4 inches with a 1 oz charge of #3 buckshot totaling 20 pellets. The case ships in factory packaging as 50 boxes of 5 rounds, for a total of 250 shells. The smaller 5 round boxes are convenient for a range bag or a truck.
