Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

Fiocchi has been supplying waterfowl hunters for years with the Flyway series, and these 3.5-inch shells continue that tradition with a straightforward, no-nonsense approach to steel shot performance. Loaded to 1470 fps with zinc-plated #2 steel shot, this load gives you roughly 167 pellets per shell that deliver the combination of velocity and payload needed for longer-range shots without sacrificing barrel life.
The Flyway line uses treated steel shot paired with protective wads designed to keep hard pellets away from your bore. This matters because steel shot moving at 1470 fps can wear faster than lead, and Fiocchi's engineering keeps that in check. The zinc plating on the shot itself resists the kind of corrosion that happens when you're hunting around wetlands where barrels and shells get wet between setups.
These shells work well for the typical waterfowl scenarios you'll encounter. Number 2 shot strikes the right balance for ducks and geese without going so large that you lose pattern density. At reasonable ranges, the combination of shot size and velocity will put pellets where you need them. The 3.5-inch hull gives you a heavier payload than a 3-inch shell, which matters when you're trying to extend effective range or simply want more chances on each trigger pull.
What keeps hunters coming back to the Flyway series is the reliability. Fiocchi combines matched powders and consistent priming to deliver shell-to-shell uniformity. You get the same performance from the first shot in the box to the last. That kind of predictability lets you pattern your gun with confidence and focus on your shooting instead of worrying about whether your ammunition will do its job.
These shells require a 12-gauge shotgun specifically chambered for 3.5-inch ammunition. Always check your firearm's specifications before use. Many modern waterfowl shotguns are built for 3.5-inch shells, but older models or target guns may only handle 2.75-inch or 3-inch loads.
Number 2 shot pellets are larger and heavier, making them better for bigger birds like Canada geese and late-season mallards where penetration matters. Number 3 and 4 sizes offer denser patterns with more pellets per ounce, which some hunters prefer for smaller ducks at shorter ranges. Your choice depends on what you're hunting and the typical distances in your area.
Yes, these shells were designed with long-range waterfowl in mind. The 1470 fps velocity and #2 shot payload deliver the energy and pellet count needed for distant shots on geese. However, like all ammunition, pattern testing with your specific gun and choke combination will tell you the real-world effective range.
Fiocchi focuses on delivering straightforward performance without premium pricing. You still get treated steel shot, protective wads, and matched powders for consistent patterns. The company builds waterfowl loads in high volume, which helps keep costs lower than boutique brands while maintaining reliable quality.
