Federal Premium Prairie Storm shotshells give you what upland hunters actually care about: reliable patterns that stay tight at range. Built with the same wad technology that transformed waterfowl shooting, these shells use a rear-opening FLITECONTROL FLEX design that deploys wings the instant it exits the barrel. Those wings create drag and pull the wad away from the shot string at exactly the right moment, resulting in tight, repeatable patterns whether you're shooting an improved cylinder or a full choke.
The real advantage is in the pellet mix. Each shell carries a smart combination of 70 percent standard copper-plated lead shot and 30 percent nickel-plated FLITESTOPPER lead. That FLITESTOPPER pellet is where the cutting edge comes in, literally. The raised cutting ridge around each pellet's circumference means bigger, nastier wound channels. You get the best of both worlds: a full pattern with the standard pellets and terminal performance that sets these apart from generic upland loads. The copper plating keeps traditional pellets round under pressure so they stack tightly downrange.
The 20-gauge platform doesn't need to apologize to anybody. With modern shells and tight chokes, a 20 delivers lethal patterns on pheasant and chukar from 35 to 40 yards. The 1-ounce #5 payload gives you 160 pellets per shell, plenty of coverage without the recoil and weight that makes a day in the field grueling. The 1350 fps velocity is solid for this gauge and shell combination, delivering consistent energy without unnecessary muzzle blast. Brass bases give you confidence in field conditions, and the 25-round box works perfectly for a day's hunt or building supply.
Federal spent years perfecting this wad design through Black Cloud waterfowl and HEAVYWEIGHT turkey loads before bringing it to upland shells. It's not a gimmick. The rear-opening design works equally well through ported chokes and standard barrels, which means one box handles your improved cylinder, modified, and full chokes without patterns falling apart up close or opening too wide downrange.
Yes. The FLITECONTROL FLEX wad was specifically engineered to perform consistently through both ported and standard barrels. You won't get open patterns up close or loose patterns downrange, regardless of choke type.
The standard copper-plated pellets maintain roundness under pressure for dense, consistent patterns. The FLITESTOPPER pellets have a raised cutting edge that creates larger wound channels, giving you both pattern density and hard-hitting terminal performance where it matters.
The 20 gauge carries 160 pellets of #5 shot with less recoil and weight for all-day hunting. You sacrifice minimal lethality at useful ranges (35-40 yards) and gain easier carry and faster follow-ups. It's the preferred choice for hunters prioritizing control and comfort without compromising performance.
For 20 gauge, 1350 fps is appropriate and effective. You're gaining consistency and pattern performance over raw velocity. The mixed pellet design and FLITECONTROL wad deliver retained energy downrange more effectively than bulk velocity numbers suggest.
