The Federal Speed-Shok 12 Gauge 3.50-Inch 1-3/8oz BBB Steel Shot (brand part no. WF133BBB) carries the largest steel pellet in Federal’s Speed-Shok lineup, built for hunters who want maximum per-pellet energy on geese at the far edge of effective range. Federal Ammunition loads Speed-Shok with a high-performance primer and fast-burning powder that dramatically reduces residue, while its optimized velocities deliver serious knockdown power. Trading some pattern density for pellet size is the standard trade-off goose hunters make when the shots stretch out. In shotgun shells for goose hunting, this is the largest-pellet option in Federal’s Speed-Shok lineup.
