Dove hunting is a numbers game, and when the birds are streaming into a field you want a shell that fires every time and hits hard when you connect. Federal built their Texas Dove line for exactly that kind of day. This 12 gauge load stuffs a heavy 1-1/4 ounce column of #7.5 lead shot into a 2.75-inch hull and sends it downrange at a quick 1,350 fps, giving you the pattern density and reach to fold both close flushers and high crossers.
The #7.5 shot size is about as versatile as it gets for wingshooting. It carries enough weight to keep energy on longer pokes at those high white-wings, while still throwing a pellet count dense enough to be forgiving on the fast, twisting targets doves are famous for. The extra 1/4 ounce of payload over a standard field load stacks more lead in the air, which is a real edge late in the season when birds get bigger, smarter, and hang out at the far end of your range.
Everything rides on Federal's time-tested hull and primer, the same components that have earned the brand a reputation across the dove fields and skeet ranges for years. On a high-volume shoot, the last thing you want is a hull that swells or a primer that misfires between flights. These feed and eject smoothly through pumps, autoloaders, and over-unders alike, so you can stay focused on the birds instead of your gun.
Most hunters pair a #7.5 load like this with an improved cylinder or modified choke depending on how far the shots are stretching. Early in the season over a close waterhole, open it up. When the birds wise up and start flaring at distance, a tighter choke and this heavier payload make a solid pairing. The Lone Star themed packaging is a nice touch, but the performance inside the box is what keeps hunters coming back.
It's one of the most versatile choices out there for doves. The #7.5 shot carries enough weight to reach out on longer shots while still throwing a dense enough pattern to be forgiving on fast birds. The heavy 1-1/4 ounce payload gives you extra pellets in the air, which pays off late in the season on bigger, warier doves.
Improved cylinder is a solid pick for close shots over a waterhole or feed field early in the season. As the birds start flaring at distance, tightening up to a modified choke helps you keep the pattern together downrange. Patterning your specific gun and choke combo before opening day is always worth the range time.
It runs at 1,350 fps, which is on the brisk end for a dove load. The higher velocity shortens your lead and helps put energy on those fast, erratic targets. It does come with a bit more recoil than a lighter field load, which is a fair trade for the extra reach.
Yes. This is a standard 2.75-inch load built on Federal's proven hull, and it feeds and ejects reliably through autoloaders, pumps, and over-unders. On a high-volume shoot the dependable hull and primer keep you running without hiccups between flights.
