The Rio Ammunition Texas Game Load High Velocity is a purpose-built 12 gauge shotshell engineered for consistent field performance across demanding applications. Developed with an acute understanding of the requirements for small game hunting, this load integrates Rio’s commitment to in-house component manufacturing, ensuring uniform ballistic characteristics and terminal performance.
Key Features
High Velocity Performance
Engineered for high-velocity operation, this load delivers rapid energy transfer, optimizing knockdown power on fast-moving targets. The ballistic profile is calibrated to maintain velocity through typical hunting ranges, reducing lead time and increasing target acquisition consistency.
Optimized Patterning and Reliability
Utilizes components manufactured entirely in-house, including primers, powder, and wads. This vertical integration ensures stringent quality control over critical elements, leading to predictable patterning and shot-to-shot reliability. The system is designed to mitigate variability, promoting tighter shot clouds for effective game engagement.
Application Specific Design
Loaded with a 1 1/4 ounce payload of #8 lead shot, this shotshell is specifically calibrated for the demands of dove hunting. The shot size and velocity combination provides the necessary energy and density for clean incapacitation within effective range, a critical factor for ethical harvesting.
