Fed Gmshk Hi Br 410ga 2.5 7.5 25/250

Federal GameShok Hi-Brass 410 Gauge 2.5-inch shotshell ammunition is purpose-built for upland game hunting in fields and woodlands. Each box contains 25 rounds loaded with #7.5 shot, delivering the shot pattern consistency needed for reliable performance on pheasant, quail, grouse, and other upland species where smaller gauge loads are preferred.

The 410-gauge 2.5-inch shell is the longest standard load for .410 shotguns, maximizing payload within the platform's design constraints. Loaded to 1,200 feet per second, this velocity range provides adequate energy transfer for clean, humane harvests at typical hunting distances while keeping recoil manageable during extended hunting sessions. The #7.5 shot size strikes the balance between pattern density and individual pellet energy—fine enough for precise targeting on smaller upland birds, yet substantial enough to deliver stopping power within effective range. Federal's Hi-Brass construction denotes higher brass heads, a design feature that supports stronger primer ignition and contributes to consistent performance across temperature and elevation variations in the field.

Hunters selecting 410-gauge loads prioritize handling ease and reduced recoil—particularly important in lightweight, quick-handling over-under or side-by-side shotguns designed for upland work. This ammunition suits driven hunts, walk-ups, and point-and-flush scenarios where rapid target acquisition and follow-up shots demand a platform the shooter can manage confidently all day. Serious upland shooters value Federal GameShok ammunition for its consistent powder charges and primer quality, which translate to predictable ballistics essential for the tight margins of shotgun hunting.
