Federal Ammunition provides specialized 12 gauge buckshot loads engineered for critical personal defense scenarios. The Federal Premium PD series prioritizes controlled patterns and reliable terminal performance, essential for serious applications.
Engineered Pattern Control
- The core of this load’s performance is the proprietary FLITECONTROL wad. This innovative, rear-braking design guides the 00 buckshot pellets more effectively than conventional wads.
- It ensures the shot column stays together longer, resulting in significantly tighter and more consistent patterns at relevant defensive distances. This minimizes pellet dispersion and maximizes the payload’s impact.
Optimized Terminal Performance
- Each 2.75-inch shell contains nine 00 buckshot pellets, a proven payload for defensive use.
- The specialized payload composition, combined with the FLITECONTROL wad’s controlled release, delivers reliable penetration. This ensures effective energy transfer, a crucial factor in personal defense situations.
These Federal Premium shotgun shells are developed for those who demand predictable and effective performance from their ammunition. For home defense or similar critical applications, reliability is paramount.
