Remington Nitro Pheasant 20 Gauge 2.75in #6 Shot

Remington’s Nitro Pheasant loads in 20 gauge (brand part no. 28648) pack a 2.75-inch shell with 1 ounce of #6 shot, built around Remington’s own Copper-Lokt copper-plated lead shot for hunters who want more from a 20 gauge upland gun. Remington loads Copper-Lokt with a high antimony content, the hardest lead the company makes for hunting ammunition, so the pellets stay rounder through the barrel instead of deforming under setback pressure. Rounder pellets fly truer and pattern tighter, delivering the penetration and pattern density needed to bring down tough upland birds. For 20 gauge pheasant hunters who want maximum pattern performance from a lighter-carrying gun, these shotgun shells are built to deliver it.
