B&P Upland Game Shotshells 20ga 2-3/4in #5 Shot

B&P Upland Game 20 gauge, 2-3/4-inch, #5 shot shotshells (brand part no. 20B78UP5) are engineered specifically for upland small-game hunting, where consistent patterns and low recoil matter more than raw payload. B&P loads nickel-plated lead shot for this line, holding tighter patterns at longer distances than plain lead while still carrying enough power to drop quarry with each shot. The 7/8 ounce payload of #5 shot suits pheasant, grouse, and similar upland birds without the punishing recoil of a heavier field load. Whether it’s a rabbit springing from cover or a woodcock trying to flush and run, this load is built to stop it. Packed 25 to a box, this is dependable shotgun ammunition for a season of upland hunting.
