The Remington Lead Game Load 16 Gauge 2-3/4-inch #6 Shot Shotshells pairs a 16 Gauge hull with a 1 oz #6 payload for upland hunters who want a dependable load in the vest (brand part no. GL166). Remington builds this Lead Game Load shell to pattern consistently, round after round, without the flyers that ruin a clean shot. It is sized for upland bird hunts, where a shell that shoots the way the last box shot matters more than any spec sheet. Whether it is the first box of the season or the last one before the freezer is full, this load is built to be the one you do not have to think about. Find it filed with our shotgun shells lineup, stocked for the shooters who buy by the case.

Key Specifications

• The chambering is 16 Gauge, the gauge upland hunters already carry afield.
• Shell length is 2-3/4-inch, so it chambers and cycles in any 16 Gauge gun rated for that length.
• The payload weighs 1 oz, enough shot mass to put down birds cleanly at practical range.
• Shot size is #6, sized for upland bird hunts.
• The shot is lead, still the densest common payload for clean kills at practical range.
• Muzzle velocity is 1200 fps, quick enough to flatten trajectory at field distances.
• Each box holds 25 rounds, enough to pattern the gun and still head to the field.
• Powder charge is 2-1/2 dram equivalent, a traditional field-load pressure for consistent patterns.
• A box ships at roughly 2.2 lb, light enough to order several boxes without a heavy shipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many rounds are in a box? 25 rounds per box.

Is this shot steel or lead? Lead. It is not approved for waterfowl hunting under federal non-toxic shot rules, but it is a strong choice for upland bird hunts.

What 16 Gauge chamber length does this need? A chamber rated for at least 2-3/4-inch; a longer chamber safely fires a shorter shell, but a shorter chamber should never fire a longer one.
