Description
Kent Cartridge makes some of the most trusted ammunition in the upland game today, and these Ultimate Fast Lead shells show why. They combine everything you need for consistent success in the field: a 1-1/4 ounce payload, custom-blended powders that deliver 1345 fps muzzle velocity, and Kent's proprietary Diamond Lead shot that's specially polished to retain its shape better than standard lead.
What Makes Ultimate Fast Lead Stand Out
The Diamond Lead shot is the key difference here. It's harder and more uniformly graded than standard lead, which means it flies truer and delivers tighter patterns downrange. That matters when you're working birds 35-50 yards out and need every pellet to count. The polished finish reduces deformation, so you get consistent, predictable performance shot after shot.
Built for Real Hunting Conditions
These are built on premium hulls with reliable primers and clean-burning powder formulation. You get smooth cycling through most shotguns and solid ignition in tough field conditions. The #7.5 shot size strikes the right balance for upland birds like pheasants, grouse, and quail, offering good range without excessive meat damage. Plenty of hunters have found that this load won't go out of style because it just works when it matters.
Comes in a standard 25-round box perfect for a day hunt or pattern testing your shotgun before the season starts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Diamond Lead shot and why does it matter?
Diamond Lead is Kent's proprietary shot that's highly polished and harder than standard lead. This makes each pellet retain its spherical shape better through the barrel and downrange, which means you get tighter, more consistent patterns. It's one of the key reasons hunters prefer these shells for upland birds where shot placement counts.
Is #7.5 shot good for pheasant and quail?
#7.5 is an excellent choice for upland birds like pheasant, grouse, and quail. It offers good range with plenty of pellets per shot while causing less meat damage than larger shot sizes. This load balances power and precision for typical upland hunting distances of 35-50 yards.
How does the 1345 fps velocity compare to other upland loads?
1345 fps provides solid downrange energy without excessive recoil, making it manageable for extended hunting. It's a reasonable velocity for upland shells, though some loads run higher. The key is that Kent measures muzzle velocity, and combined with the harder Diamond shot, you get consistent penetration and pattern density at practical field distances.
Can I use these shells in any 12 gauge shotgun?
These 2.75" shells will work in any standard 12 gauge shotgun chambered for 2.75" shells, including older hunting guns and modern models. They cycle smoothly through most actions due to the clean-burning powder and premium hull construction, though as always it's good practice to pattern your specific shotgun before hunting.
