Rem Nitro Trky 12ga 3.5in #5 10/100

The Rem Nitro Turkey 12ga 3.5-inch #5 shot is purpose-built for turkey hunters seeking premium ballistic performance at extended ranges. This 10-round per 100-count case delivers consistent, tight patterns through standard turkey chokes, making it a proven choice for spring and fall turkey seasons across varied terrain and weather conditions.

The 3.5-inch magnum shell generates higher velocities and denser payload concentration compared to standard 2.75-inch loads, translating to deeper penetration and more reliable harvest at distances where standard turkey shot falls short. Shot size #5 provides the ballistic sweet spot for turkey hunting—large enough to deliver lethal energy to vital zones, yet small enough to produce the pattern density required for consistent hits at 40+ yards. Nitro formulation resists deformation during acceleration, maintaining shot sphericity through the barrel and choke, which directly improves pattern uniformity and predictability.

Turkey hunters pursuing birds in open fields, timber, or mixed terrain depend on ammunition that performs reliably across varied shooting distances and conditions. The 3.5-inch magnum format accommodates hunters using full-choke or extra-full turkey tubes on 12-gauge shotguns. This cartridge is engineered for the serious turkey hunter who demands tight, consistent patterns and sufficient energy retention to ethically harvest birds at challenging ranges, not casual clay or upland shooting.

Within the 12-gauge turkey ammunition category, 3.5-inch magnum loads occupy the premium performance tier, delivering ballistic characteristics that exceed standard 2.75-inch offerings. Shot size #5 remains the most popular choice among dedicated turkey hunters, offering proven lethality combined with pattern density that supports success at extended range. Nitro-constructed shot delivers the consistency required for patterning ammunition before the season and maintaining that performance in the field.
