Federal Hoa 12ga 2.75" #7.5 25/250

Federal HOA 12ga 2.75" #7.5 shot is a field-grade shotgun load engineered for upland game hunting and clay target sport shooting. The #7.5 shot size delivers consistent patterns at intermediate distances, making it a versatile choice for flushing birds and hitting clay targets with effective energy distribution across a wide effective range.

The 2.75-inch hull length fires from any standard 12-gauge shotgun chambered for standard or magnum loads, keeping recoil moderate compared to 3-inch ammunition while maintaining adequate pellet count and velocity for reliable pattern density. Federal's HOA line emphasizes cost-effective performance without sacrificing consistent ignition and shot consistency. The #7.5 pellet diameter strikes a balance between pattern tightness and effective striking energy, particularly suited for medium-range wingshooting where dense clusters matter more than deep penetration.

This ammunition serves upland hunters pursuing quail, pheasant, and dove, as well as competitive clay shooters running trap and skeet courses where standard shot sizes are preferred. The 25-round box format (250 total rounds across 10 boxes) supports both practice sessions and field seasons without requiring bulk case quantities. Federal's reputation for primer reliability and consistent powder charges makes this load dependable across temperature variations common in hunting seasons.
