If you're looking for shotshell ammunition that does right by the environment without making you sacrifice performance, Bioammo's Dove & Clay load checks all the boxes. The 1 ounce payload of #9 lead shot delivers the pellet density you need for small game and clay targets, traveling downrange at 1165 feet per second to maintain pattern integrity at reasonable distances.
The real story here is the construction. Every single component biodegrades. The wads are compostable, the cases are compostable, and there's zero plastic anywhere in these shells. You're not making environmental compromises just because you picked up ammunition. The biopolymers used have earned OK Compost Home and industrial certifications, so they'll break down naturally in the field without creating microplastics.
The #9 shot size and 1 ounce charge keep these shells versatile. They work for early-season dove hunting where you're taking reasonable-distance shots, and the dense pattern is exactly what competitive clay shooters want for tighter breakage on targets. The standard 2.75-inch shell length means they'll chamber in any modern 20 gauge shotgun. Real-world feedback shows consistent patterns and dependable performance, which matters when you're trying to hunt clean or break birds at the range.
The 20 gauge platform combined with this load weight keeps felt recoil manageable, so you can shoot longer without punishment. That matters whether you're grinding through practice rounds or hunting from sunrise to sunset. These shells come packed 25 to a box, which is the standard load count for most shooters picking up a box or two for the field or range.
Yes. These are standard 20 gauge 2.75-inch shells that will chamber safely in any 20 gauge shotgun designed to handle standard-length shells. Most modern 20 gauge shotguns are built to handle both 2.75 and 3-inch shells, so compatibility isn't an issue. Just double-check your shotgun's chamber specifications if you're unsure.
The #9 shot size is ideal for early-season doves and close-range opportunities. Doves are soft birds and don't require heavy shot to bring down, so the smaller pellet size gives you more pellets in your pattern for better odds of connecting. If you're hunting late season or taking longer shots, consider bumping up to #7.5 or #8, but for general dove work, this is a solid load.
The compostable wads and cases break down naturally over time without leaving microplastics behind. That matters if you're hunting on public land, private property you care about, or if you're just someone who'd rather not contribute to plastic waste. Performance stays the same—these shells pattern and perform like traditional shells, so you're not trading effectiveness for environmental responsibility.
Absolutely. The dense pattern from the #9 shot and 1 ounce load makes these a solid choice for recreational clay shooting or practice. Competitive trap and skeet shooters often prefer lighter payloads like 7/8 ounce, but for general target practice, these shells break clays just fine. Your shotgun's performance and your ability matter more than having a specialized competition load.
