Fed Pr Strm 12ga 3" 1.25oz #6 25/250

Federal Premium Storm 12ga 3" 1.25oz #6 shot shells are purpose-built upland hunting rounds engineered for consistent, tight patterns across variable choke configurations. Designed for hunters and sport shooters who demand reliable performance in the field, these 25-round boxes deliver the precision and dependability that tactical and hunting professionals depend on when the shot counts. Federal's Prairie Storm line combines decades of ammunition expertise with field-proven wad technology to ensure clean, repeatable results on game and clay targets alike.

The Federal Premium Storm rounds feature the FLITECONTROL FLEX wad system—a rear-opening design that separates cleanly from the shot column for tighter grouping and reduced flyer pellets. The payload combines standard lead pellets with FLITESTOPPER technology, balancing energy retention and pattern density while maintaining uniform shot distribution at typical upland distances. The 1.25-ounce charge in a 3-inch magnum hull delivers sufficient payload for effective range without excessive recoil, making these rounds suitable for extended shooting sessions. This engineering approach produces full, consistent patterns through improved cylinder, modified, and full chokes, reducing the variance shooters encounter with conventional wads.

Upland hunters pursuing pheasant, quail, and similar game benefit most from the pattern consistency and ballistic design of these Federal Premium rounds. The #6 shot size strikes the ideal balance between pellet count and penetration for mid-range upland work, typically effective to 35–45 yards depending on choke and individual shotgun characteristics. Sport clay shooters and training professionals also leverage these shells for practice and competition due to their reliable ignition and minimal variance in velocity. Compatible with any 12-gauge shotgun chambered for 3-inch magnum loads, Federal Premium Storm ammunition pairs effectively with both modern semi-automatics and traditional pump or break-action shotguns, making it a versatile choice for versatile shotgun systems.
