Fiocchi Golden Goose 12 gauge waterfowl shotshells load 1-5/8 ounces of #2 treated steel shot in a full 3.5-inch magnum hull (part no. 1235GG2), built for hunters chasing geese and big ducks at real waterfowl ranges. Fiocchi combines quality powder, primers, and hulls with treated steel shot that holds a harder surface than standard steel, so pellets stay round, fly true, and penetrate deeper downrange. The heavy 1-5/8 ounce payload keeps pattern density high even at the outer edge of steel’s effective range. In shotgun shells built for serious goose hunters, Golden Goose is engineered to be tough on birds and easy on your gun.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes treated steel shot different from standard steel? Treated steel has increased surface hardness, which keeps pellets rounder through the barrel so they fly truer and penetrate deeper at range than standard steel shot.

Is this load hard on gun barrels? No, despite the magnum-class payload, Fiocchi engineers the load to be easy on barrels and chokes.

What waterfowl is this load suited for? The heavy 1-5/8 ounce charge of #2 steel is built for geese and large ducks, not close-range puddle duck hunting.
