Federal Premium Prairie Storm FS 28 Gauge 2.75-Inch 13/16 oz #6 Shot, 25-Round Box

Federal Premium Prairie Storm FS Lead in 28 gauge (part no. PFX289FS 6) brings the sub-gauge upland hunter a full-length 2.75-inch shell without giving up pattern quality. Federal Ammunition loads 13/16 ounce of #6 shot as a mixed payload of standard pellets and FliteStopper lead, launched from the rear-opening FliteControl Flex wad that keeps patterns full and consistent through any upland choke. The result is a 28 gauge that carries real payload weight without the recoil or bulk of a bigger bore. For hunters who carry a light gun but refuse light performance, these shotgun shells are the upland answer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a special choke for the FliteControl Flex wad? No, the wad is designed to pattern consistently through any standard upland choke.

Why choose the 2.75-inch shell over a 3-inch Prairie Storm load? The shorter shell cycles a bit softer in semi-autos and pumps while still carrying a strong payload for the gauge, making it a comfortable all-day upland option.
