Description

The Kent Cartridge Ultimate Fast Lead shells combine a heavy 1 3/8 oz payload with a screaming 1475 fps muzzle velocity, making them a solid choice for upland bird hunting. These aren't your basic target loads—they're built for the field with purpose.

What Sets These Shells Apart

Kent's Diamond Lead shot is the real story here. It's harder and more uniformly graded than standard lead, which means the pellets hold their spherical shape better during the shot sequence. You get a tighter, more consistent pattern downrange and better energy transfer on impact. The #6 shot size is versatile enough for pheasants, grouse, quail, and even some early-season waterfowl if you're in a pinch.

Engineered for Consistent Performance

The combination of a heavy payload and high velocity makes these shells capable of reaching out and punching hard on fast-flushing birds. Kent loads these with custom-blended powder and a premium wad designed to work smoothly in both pump and semi-automatic shotguns. The high-density plastic hulls feed reliably and eject cleanly shot after shot.

These are shells that do what they're supposed to do without a lot of fuss. They'll cycle your gun reliably, deliver consistent patterns, and put birds down when you do your part.

Frequently Asked Questions

What hunting situations are the Ultimate Fast Lead #6 shells best for?

The #6 shot size and 1 3/8 oz payload make these ideal for pheasant, grouse, quail, and chukar hunting. They work well for both early-season and late-season upland birds. The high velocity helps reach out on longer shots, making them versatile across different hunting styles.

Will these shells cycle properly in my semi-automatic shotgun?

Yes. Kent designed the wad and hull specifically to work smoothly in semi-automatic shotguns. The high-density plastic hull feeds and ejects reliably. That said, as with all shotshells, cycling can depend on your specific gun and how it's tuned, so running a box through your gun first is always smart.

How does the 1475 fps velocity compare to other upland loads?

1475 fps is on the faster side for standard 2.75-inch upland loads and gives you good energy retention downrange. The tradeoff is that faster loads can sometimes open up patterns slightly, so patterning your gun with these shells will tell you if you need to adjust your choke.

Are these Kent shells made in the USA?

Yes, Kent Cartridge manufactures these shotshells at their facility in West Virginia. They handle loading and quality control in-house, which is why they stand behind the consistency and reliability of their product.
