Description

The Remington Game Load 20 gauge is a dependable field round purpose-built for upland bird hunting and small game work. Each shell holds 7/8 ounce of #6 lead shot loaded to 1225 feet per second, creating a balanced pellet count that works across diverse hunting situations. Whether you're pursuing quail, grouse, rabbits, or other varmints, this load strikes the middle ground between energy and pattern density.

What Makes These Game Load Rounds Work

Remington's shot manufacturing process is designed around precision. Their lead is cast in an 11-story tower in Lanoke, Arkansas, where 90-pound lead pigs are melted and poured through sizing screens. The droplets fall through chilled water, creating hard, uniform pellets. Multiple quality control passes ensure consistent shot size and shape, which directly translates to more reliable patterning in the field.

Why #6 Shot Matters for 20 Gauge Hunting

The #6 pellet sits in a sweet spot for 20 gauge upland work. You get enough pellets per shell for pattern density at reasonable hunting ranges, while each pellet carries sufficient energy to cleanly take birds. Many experienced upland hunters specifically recommend #6 for this gauge because it handles quail, doves, and light pheasant work without requiring larger gauges. The 20 gauge itself appeals to hunters who prefer lower recoil and lighter gun weight during long days afield, and these Game Load shells pair well with that hunting style.

Field-Ready Ammunition

The extruded plastic hull and clean-igniting primer minimize fouling buildup, which keeps maintenance in the field manageable. These are straightforward, no-frills rounds designed to go to work. You'll find them priced reasonably, making them practical for the high-volume practice and hunting that builds actual shooting skill.

Frequently Asked Questions

What game is the Remington Game Load 20 gauge suitable for hunting?

These shells work well for upland birds like quail, grouse, doves, and light pheasant work, as well as small game including rabbits, raccoons, and other varmints. The #6 shot provides a good balance of pattern density and pellet energy at practical hunting ranges for these applications.

How does the #6 shot size compare to other options in 20 gauge?

Number 6 shot offers more pellets per shell than larger sizes like #4 or #5, giving you denser patterns better suited for smaller, faster-moving birds at moderate range. It's a versatile choice that bridges the gap between tight patterns for small game and enough energy to handle tougher upland birds in the right circumstances.

Are the Remington Game Load hulls reloadable?

Yes, the extruded plastic hulls are designed to be reloaded. If you're interested in handloading, inspect all hulls for uniformity before reloading. This can be a cost-effective way to shoot more rounds while having the flexibility to test different shot sizes and payloads.

What choke should I use with this 20 gauge load?

Modified or improved modified chokes work well with these Game Load shells for upland hunting, helping you maintain pattern density at typical hunting distances of 25 to 35 yards. Your specific gun's handling may vary, so it's worth patterning these shells with your shotgun to see what works best.
