Yes, the Remington 20658 Nitro-Steel High Velocity is designed for various waterfowl hunting scenarios, including ducks, geese, and other waterfowl species.
While primarily designed for waterfowl, this ammunition can be used for upland game hunting in areas where non-toxic shot is required. However, it may be overpowered for smaller upland birds.
The high velocity (1275 fps) and #4 shot size provide an effective range of up to 50-60 yards for most waterfowl hunting situations, depending on choke selection and shooting skill.
Yes, the steel shot used in this ammunition complies with federal and state regulations requiring non-toxic shot for waterfowl hunting.
The 1-1/4 oz load combined with the high velocity will produce noticeable recoil. It's more substantial than lighter target loads but manageable for most experienced hunters.
It's recommended to use steel shot only in shotguns designed for or approved for steel shot use. Always check your shotgun's manual or consult with a gunsmith before using steel shot in older firearms.
The #4 shot size is versatile, effective on both ducks and geese. It provides a good balance of pellet count and individual pellet energy for medium to large waterfowl.
For most waterfowl hunting situations, improved cylinder or modified chokes work well with this load. Always pattern your shotgun to determine the best choke for your specific firearm and hunting scenario.
Remington's Nitro-Steel technology is designed to optimize the powder charge and wad design for consistent patterns and improved downrange performance with steel shot.
While it can break clays, this high-velocity, heavy payload ammunition is overqualified for clay shooting. It's designed and better suited for hunting applications.
