The B&P Upland Game 28 gauge comes loaded with 3/4 ounce of nickel-plated #6 shot at 1300 fps, a pairing that defines the practical limit of what a 2-3/4 inch shell can deliver in this gauge without sacrificing pattern integrity. This load hits the sweet spot for hunters who appreciate the lightweight handling and gentle recoil of a 28 gauge while still putting enough lead downrange to connect on fast-flushing birds.
The 3/4 ounce payload in a 28 gauge is where efficiency lives. Push past it and you start seeing shot deformation and stringing. Stay with this load and you get consistent, dense patterns that hold together through reasonable shooting distances. The nickel-plated lead pellets resist deformation through the barrel, which means each shot maintains its energy and penetration potential. That 1300 fps velocity isn't blazing, but it's appropriately matched to the payload and doesn't generate the unnecessary recoil that comes with hotter loads.
What separates B&P shells from commodity ammunition is their proprietary wad technology. The Gordon System is engineered to cushion recoil while supporting pattern density, so you get more reliable shooting when you're working birds in the field. If you're coming from a heavier gauge, you'll notice the difference in how manageable these shells feel through multiple shots.
The 28 gauge occupies a unique space in upland hunting. It rewards good shooting and fieldcraft because you can't muscle through mistakes the way you might with a 12 gauge. That constraint tends to make hunters more deliberate about range and lead. The B&P Upland Game line respects that philosophy. It's built for hunters who understand their effective range, know their gun's choke, and are comfortable being selective about their shots.
Yes. B&P uses a proprietary wad design called the Gordon System that's engineered to support pattern density and reduce shot deformation. Nickel-plated pellets resist flattening as they travel through your barrel, which means you get more reliable, predictable patterns round to round. That consistency is why B&P earned its reputation with clay shooters and hunters alike.
For a 2-3/4 inch shell, 3/4 ounce represents the practical sweet spot. Load heavier and you risk stringing and pattern degradation in this narrow bore. This weight delivers enough shot to handle upland birds at reasonable ranges while staying true to the efficiency and recoil profile that makes the 28 gauge appealing in the first place.
Number 6 shot works well on quail, grouse, sharpies, huns, and early-season pheasants. The size provides good pellet count with enough individual pellet mass to penetrate efficiently. If you're hunting larger or tougher birds, some hunters prefer the heavier impact of #5 shot, but #6 is the traditional choice for mixed upland game across different regions.
B&P has been manufacturing ammunition since 1885 and built their reputation on consistency and performance. These shells use quality components, solid manufacturing, and advanced wad technology. Field reports from upland hunters consistently praise their reliability, pattern performance, and weather resistance.
