Sterling, Exclusive Series, 28 Gauge 2.75", #8, 21 Grain, 3/4 oz, Shot, 25 Round Box

The Sterling Exclusive Series 28 Gauge 2.75" #8 Shot ammunition delivers consistent, reliable performance for upland game hunting and sport shooting applications where lightweight handling and reduced recoil are priorities. Designed for shooters who demand precision without punishing shoulder fatigue during extended range sessions, this 25-round box provides the round count and portability serious hunters and sport shooters need for a full day afield. The 28 gauge platform remains an excellent choice for flushing birds and delivering dense, effective patterns downrange.

Each cartridge in this box is loaded with 21 grains of powder and 3/4 ounce of #8 shot, a configuration proven to generate effective velocity and shot density for medium-range engagements typical of upland hunting scenarios. The 2.75-inch shell length ensures compatibility with standard chamber lengths across most 28 gauge shotguns, while the #8 shot size—smaller than #6 but larger than #9—balances pellet count with individual pellet energy for optimal pattern performance on fast-moving targets. Sterling's consistent quality control throughout the manufacturing process ensures that each round performs with minimal velocity variance, a critical factor when building muscle memory and maintaining accuracy in the field.

Law enforcement trainers, competitive sport shooters, and upland hunters benefit most from ammunition that combines affordability with reliability, and this 25-round box meets that standard without compromise. The reduced recoil profile makes the Sterling Exclusive Series particularly suitable for younger shooters, women, and recoil-sensitive individuals seeking extended shooting sessions without fatigue. Verify your shotgun's chamber length (2.75" or 3") before purchase to ensure proper fit and safe operation—28 gauge shotguns universally accept standard 2.75" shells in standard chambers.
