The Remington Wingmaster HD 12 Gauge 3" shotgun shells deliver exceptional performance for waterfowl and upland game hunting. Featuring a 1 3/8 oz payload of #4 shot made from a 12.0g/cc tungsten blend, these shells offer superior density and energy retention compared to lead or steel. The round, smooth, true-sized pellets create dense, efficient patterns with deep penetration. With a muzzle velocity of 1450 fps, Wingmaster HD provides the ideal combination of pellet energy and pattern density for effective long-range shots. The tungsten blend is nearly as soft as steel, making it easier on barrels and choke tubes than other tungsten-based products while still providing excellent choke response similar to lead shot.
