Federal built the Texas Dove line for exactly what the name says: the kind of high-volume dove hunting where you burn through a box before lunch and reach for another. This 12 gauge load pairs a 2 3/4 inch shell with a 1 1/8 oz charge of #7.5 lead shot pushing out at 1300 fps, which is the sweet spot for mourning and white-winged doves darting across a sunflower field. The velocity gives you a little extra reach and lead room on birds that never seem to fly straight.
The #7.5 shot size is the classic dove pellet for good reason. It throws a dense, even pattern that puts enough BBs on a small, fast target to bring it down cleanly without turning it to mush. Federal builds these on their proven hull and primer, so ignition stays reliable through hot September afternoons and cooler late-season sits alike. That consistency matters when you're shooting fast and don't want a dud breaking up your rhythm.
At 1 1/8 oz, this is a lighter payload than the heavier 1 1/4 oz Texas Dove option, which means noticeably less recoil across a big box of shells. If you're the type who shoots a few hundred rounds over an opening weekend, your shoulder will thank you. It still carries plenty of authority for doves, quail, and other small upland birds inside normal wingshooting range.
Each shell comes packaged in a 25-round box with Texas-themed graphics, and while the branding leans into the Lone Star dove tradition, this load shoots just as well anywhere doves fly. It's a straightforward, dependable field shell from a name that's been loading shotshells for generations.
This load uses #7.5 lead shot, which is the go-to size for dove hunting. It produces a dense, even pattern that puts enough pellets on a small, fast-moving bird to drop it cleanly at typical wingshooting distances.
Federal offers two Texas Dove loads: this 1 1/8 oz shell at 1300 fps and a heavier 1 1/4 oz shell at 1350 fps. The 1 1/8 oz option kicks less, which makes it easier on the shoulder during high-volume shoots, while still carrying plenty of punch for doves and small upland birds.
Not at all. The Texas branding just plays off the state's huge dove-hunting tradition, but the load itself is a standard 12 gauge dove shell that performs anywhere doves fly. It works great for mourning and white-winged doves as well as other small upland game.
Each box holds 25 rounds. That's the standard shotshell box size and it fits nicely in a shell bag or vest for a day in the field.
