Remington Wingmaster HD 12 Gauge shotshells deliver superior performance for waterfowl and upland game hunting. These 3-inch shells are loaded with 1 1/4 oz of #4 shot, propelled at a velocity of 1450 fps. The tungsten-based shot is 11.6g/cc dense, offering 6% higher density than lead and 49% more than steel, resulting in deeper penetration and more efficient patterns. The round, smooth, true-sized pellets create dense patterns with excellent choke response, simulating lead performance. Wingmaster HD shells are designed to be nearly as soft as steel, reducing wear on barrels and choke tubes compared to other tungsten-based products.
