The Remington Nitro Magnum has earned its reputation as a reliable workhorse for upland bird hunting. What sets it apart is the combination of buffering and wad design that protects your shot charge through the barrel, resulting in tighter, more consistent patterns downrange. You get a 1-5/8 ounce payload of hardened lead shot traveling at 1280 fps, which strikes a practical balance between pattern density and recoil you can manage all day in the field.
The polymer buffering surrounds your shot pellets, absorbing the shock of acceleration and preventing deformation as they exit the barrel. Combined with the patented Power Piston wad, this two-part design keeps the shot column intact longer and helps it retain its pattern integrity at distance. The hardened lead shot itself resists flattening, which means rounder pellets that hold their trajectory better and print tighter groups on your pattern board.
The number six shot size is the versatile choice for mixed bag upland hunting. It carries enough punch for pheasants when paired with this heavier payload, yet won't destroy quail or grouse if the opportunity presents itself. The 3-inch shell length gives you that extra payload compared to standard 2-3/4 inch loads, without pushing velocity so high that you're fighting excessive recoil. For hunters working with dogs or shooting distances under 40 yards, this load performs where it counts.
Each box contains 25 shells ready to go. The shells come in convenient 25-round boxes, with 10 boxes per case if you want to stock up. Whether you're scouting early season birds over pointers or pushing through thick cover, the Nitro Magnum delivers the reliable patterns that keep you confident in the field.
The Nitro Magnum uses shock-absorbing polymer buffering around the shot pellets combined with Remington's Power Piston wad. This dual protection system keeps shot pellets from deforming as they accelerate down the barrel, resulting in denser, more uniform patterns at distance. Standard loads don't offer this same level of shot protection, which is why you'll see noticeably tighter patterns from Nitro Magnum loads.
Yes. The number six shot size is a proven compromise for mixed upland hunting. For pheasants, it works best on closer birds or when paired with tighter chokes, generally performing well inside 40 yards. Many upland hunters choose #6 as their go-to for a single load that handles both pheasants and quail effectively without overpowering smaller game.
The Nitro Magnum's 1-5/8 ounce payload at 1280 fps is moderate for a 3-inch magnum load. You'll feel more recoil than standard 2-3/4 inch shells, but it's manageable during a full day of hunting. If recoil is a concern, consider 2-3/4 inch Nitro loads, or test the shell in your specific shotgun before committing to a full box to ensure comfort and control.
Yes, Remington Nitro Magnum hulls are designed for reloading. The brass base and quality construction hold up well to multiple reloading cycles. If you reload regularly, buying Nitro Magnum ammunition can be economical over time since the hulls have good durability and maintain their integrity through several loadings.
