The Fiocchi Hi-Vel 28 Gauge 3-inch shells bring genuine velocity to a gauge known for light recoil and quick handling. Loaded with 1 ounce of #8 shot and pushing 1300 fps, these rounds give you extra speed where it counts without the brutal recoil of larger gauges. They're built from premium components throughout: quality chilled lead shot, one-piece shot cups, cushioned wads, clean-burning powders, and reliable primers.
Fiocchi has been making ammunition since 1876, and their Field Dynamics line reflects decades of refinement. The pre-fractured wads help sustain consistent shot patterns, which means tighter groups downrange when you need them. For a 28 gauge load, that velocity bump from 1300 fps makes a real difference in the field, giving you better energy at distance without the penalty of stepping up to a 20 gauge.
Number 8 shot is the classic choice for smaller upland birds like quail, dove, and grouse. It's also a go-to for sporting clays and skeet shooting. The combination of 1 ounce of #8 and 1300 fps gives you dense pellet count with enough reach to handle mid-range presentations. These loads come 25 per box, making them convenient for range sessions or a day in the field.
These rounds bridge the gap between value and performance. You get quality construction and consistent ballistics without the premium pricing of specialty loads. Fiocchi's reputation for reliability means you can load these with confidence, knowing they'll perform shot after shot.
#8 shot works best for smaller upland birds like quail, dove, and grouse due to its dense pellet count and pattern density. It delivers plenty of pellets in a tight grouping, making it ideal for closer ranges where you're targeting smaller game birds.
These are 3-inch shells, so they won't fit in a 2.75-inch chamber. You need to check your shotgun's specifications to confirm it can handle 3-inch loads before purchasing. Using the wrong shell length can create safety issues and feeding problems.
Yes, absolutely. The 1 ounce of #8 shot at 1300 fps is a popular load for sporting clays, skeet, and trap shooting. The velocity and pellet count make it effective for breaking targets at typical clay shooting ranges, and the Fiocchi quality means consistent performance round after round.
These loads do produce more recoil than standard 28 gauge ammunition, but the 28 gauge itself is known for being mild compared to larger gauges. Most shooters find the recoil manageable, especially for an all-day hunting trip, but it will be noticeable compared to lighter 28 gauge loads.
