Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose #5 shot over smaller pellets in 28 gauge? Larger #5 pellets carry more individual energy, which suits bigger-bodied upland birds like pheasant where the smaller pattern density of the 28 gauge benefits from harder-hitting shot.
Is a 1oz payload heavy for 28 gauge? Yes, 1 ounce is a full-weight payload for 28 gauge, giving these shells notably more pellet count than lighter 3/4-ounce loads in the same gauge.
