Federal Hoa 12ga 2.75" #8 25/250

Federal HOA 12ga 2.75" #8 shot shells deliver consistent, field-proven performance for hunting and sport shooting applications. This 25-round pack with 250-round case quantity represents the standard load configuration trusted by shotgun users for upland game, clay target shooting, and general purpose field use. The #8 shot size offers a balanced pellet count and pattern density suitable for medium-range targeting.

The 2.75-inch chamber length is the traditional 12-gauge standard, compatible with any conventional 12-gauge shotgun barrel rated for standard loads. Federal's manufacturing maintains consistent powder charges and pellet seating, which translates to predictable recoil impulse and point-of-aim shifts between shots—critical for both competitive shooters working on accuracy and hunters who need reliable follow-up capability. The #8 pellet diameter strikes a practical balance: more pellets per payload than larger shot sizes, yet sufficient energy retention at typical hunting distances.

This load configuration is the go-to choice for upland bird hunters pursuing pheasant, quail, and similar game where medium-range shooting is the norm. Sport shooters competing in trap, skeet, and 5-stand formats rely on this standard load for its predictable ballistics and pattern characteristics. The bulk pack format—25 shells per box with multiple boxes available—suits both regular range users and hunters stocking up for the season. Shotgunners who shoot frequently benefit from the cost-per-round efficiency of bulk purchasing without compromising on the quality and consistency Federal ammunition is known for in the industry.
