Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What is the primary use for Tunet Speed Nickel Plated 20 Gauge shells?

A: Tunet Speed Nickel Plated 20 Gauge shells are primarily designed for upland game hunting and clay target shooting. The #7.5 shot size is ideal for smaller game birds like quail, grouse, and pheasant, as well as for breaking clay targets in skeet, trap, and sporting clays competitions.

Q: What are the advantages of nickel-plated shot?

A: Nickel-plated shot offers several advantages over standard lead shot. It provides improved corrosion resistance, which helps maintain the shot's roundness and ballistic properties. The nickel plating also reduces friction between pellets, resulting in tighter patterns and potentially increased effective range.

Q: What is the shot weight and how does it affect performance?

A: The Tunet Speed shells contain 6/7 oz of #7.5 shot. This slightly reduced payload compared to standard 1 oz loads helps to decrease recoil while maintaining sufficient energy and pattern density for effective performance on small game and clay targets at typical shooting distances.

Q: Are these shells suitable for all 20 gauge shotguns?

A: These 2 3/4" shells are suitable for use in any 20 gauge shotgun chambered for 2 3/4" or 3" shells. However, always consult your shotgun's manual to ensure compatibility, especially with older or specialized firearms.
