Description
Remington Game Loads in 20 gauge offer straightforward performance for hunters who shoot volume and want to keep costs down without sacrificing consistency. These 2.75-inch shells pack 7/8 ounce of #7.5 lead shot pushed to 1225 feet per second, giving you the pattern density and knock-down power needed for quail, dove, grouse, and similar upland game. The #7.5 shot size is the sweet spot for smaller game birds, offering more pellets per shell than larger shot sizes while still providing adequate energy at typical hunting ranges.
What Makes Remington Game Loads the Right Choice
These shells are built for the hunter who gets out regularly. Whether you're working behind a pointing dog, hunting over decoys in a field, or running a preserve, Game Loads deliver shot-to-shot consistency that makes them reliable in the field. The lighter 20-gauge recoil also means you can stay focused on your second and third shots without fatigue wearing you down through the day.
Built for the Budget-Conscious Hunter
Remington uses quality components across the entire Game Load line, so you're getting the same manufacturing standards as their premium lines at a price that doesn't sting. The standard 2.75-inch hull is compatible with virtually all modern 20-gauge shotguns, and 25 rounds per box makes it easy to practice or hunt without waste. These shells are straightforward ammunition designed to work, not to impress with fancy packaging or marketing claims.
Uses Beyond Hunting
Game Loads work well for clay target practice too. While they're not specifically loaded for competitive shooting, plenty of recreational shooters and small-game hunters use them for general practice and farm predator control.
