Description
The Wing-Shok Pheasants Forever line delivers the high-velocity performance serious upland hunters expect when chasing roosters and other game birds. These 2-3/4 inch shells load 1 ounce of copper-plated #7.5 shot pushed at 1350 feet per second, giving you the speed and pattern density needed for consistent kills from opening day through the season.
Copper-plated shot makes a real difference in the field. The plating keeps pellets from deforming as they travel down the barrel, which means tighter, more uniform patterns and deeper penetration on fast-moving birds. You get less feather draw and better energy retention when it counts. Federal pairs this with specially formulated propellants and the finest primers, all subjected to strict quality inspections for consistent ignition on every single shot.
Why #7.5 Shot Works for 20 Gauge Pheasant Hunting
The #7.5 pellet size strikes a balance that appeals to many upland hunters working with a 20 gauge. You get roughly 50 percent more shot in the air compared to larger pellet sizes, which means denser patterns and better odds of connecting on flushing birds at typical hunting ranges. This matters more than most people realize when birds are taking unpredictable flush angles through cover.
Federal Premium Quality You Can Count On
Each box contains 25 rounds of ammunition built to the standards Federal Premium has maintained for decades. The company's partnership with Pheasants Forever means a portion of every box sold goes back to habitat preservation and conservation work that keeps hunting opportunities available for future generations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the copper-plated shot in these shells different from standard lead ammunition?
The copper plating prevents pellets from deforming as they travel through the barrel, resulting in tighter patterns and more consistent shot grouping. This also reduces feather draw and allows pellets to penetrate deeper, giving you more effective performance on pheasants and other upland game at typical hunting distances.
Is #7.5 shot suitable for all pheasant hunting situations?
The #7.5 pellet size works well for typical pheasant hunting where birds are flushed at moderate ranges. The smaller pellet offers more density in the pattern compared to larger shot sizes, which is an advantage when hunting over dogs. For late-season wild birds or very long-range shots, some hunters prefer #5 or #6 shot for additional penetration.
How does the Federal Premium Wing-Shok Pheasants Forever ammunition differ from other 20-gauge loads?
Wing-Shok combines high velocity (1350 fps) with copper-plated shot and premium components like inspected primers and clean-burning powders. This creates consistent, reliable performance in the field. Additionally, a portion of proceeds goes toward Pheasants Forever's conservation mission, supporting habitat preservation.
Can I use this ammunition in any 20-gauge shotgun?
Federal Premium Wing-Shok Pheasants Forever ammunition is compatible with standard 20-gauge shotguns. Always check your specific shotgun's manufacturer guidelines for load compatibility to ensure safe operation and optimal performance.
