Versatility Defined
12 Gauge Ammo
12 gauge shotshells are versatile tools for every purpose: hunting, self-defense, law enforcement, and even military operations. The 12 gauge has a bore of about .73 inches or 18.53mm; shells for it come in a wide variety of configurations for different purposes. Standard length 2-3/4"" shells offer less firepower than "magnum" 3-inch shells, but produce lower recoil; magnum shells are generally used only for hunting. You'll find 12 gauge ammo for hunters, trapshooters, and self-defense for sale here at Widener's.
In general, 12ga. hunting loads typically fire 8-10 pellets of 00 buckshot at a muzzle velocity of around 1,325 feet per second; self-defense loads often produce around 1,200 feet per second in order to reduce recoil and overpenetration risk. Slugs, on the other hand, fire a large projectile (usually about one ounce) at a much higher velocity to extend the shotgun's reach. Some slugs use a saboted design intended for a rifled barrel only.
While not suited for self-defense or deer hunting, birdshot loads are a great choice for bird hunting or target shooting. 12 gauge shotguns are the standard for sporting clays, a sport vaguely reminiscent of golf that is played over several prepared positions with clay pigeons.
Steel birdshot loads in particular are a must have for waterfowl hunting, as environmental protection laws typically prohibit the use of lead shot in aquatic habitats.

Federal Tactical LE with FliteControl Wad 12 Gauge 2 3/4" 00 Buck 8 Pellets - 5 Rounds
$10.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Federal Condition New Bullet Weight Not Applicable Bullet Type #00 Buck Use Type hunting or defending your home Quantity 5 Ammo Caliber 12 Gauge Manufacturer SKU LE133 00 Shot Material Lead Shell Length 2-3/4" Magnetic No UPC Barcode 29465023157 Cost Per Round $2.17 per round This 12 gauge ammunition from Federal Tactical is designed for law enforcement use but can also serve well in a self-defense role. These shells feature the Flitecontrol rear-breaking wad, a design that keeps shot bunched together for several yards after it leaves a shotgun's barrel. This results in tighter patterning for better medium-range effectiveness without sacrificing point-blank lethality.
Each 2-3/4" shell in this box fires 8 pellets of 00 buckshot at a muzzle velocity of 1,145 feet per second. This velocity is considerably lower than that produced by hunting loads and serves to keep recoil to a manageable level for faster follow-up shots and mitigate the risk of overpenetration.
Federal Tactical shotshells are loaded in Anoka, Minnesota. This box contains 5 shells, so pick up a few for training and home protection!

These 00 buck rounds ran great and I would trust them as my home defense ammo. The pattern was tight while traveling down range.
