Remington engineered Nitro Pheasant for one job: delivering the knockdown power needed on tough, fast-flying birds. Each shell contains Copper-Lokt copper-plated lead shot with higher antimony content, producing harder pellets that maintain their shape through the air. The result is a tighter, more consistent pattern than soft lead shot, which matters when you're trying to connect on a rooster in open country.
The hardness of your shot directly affects how well your pattern holds together downrange. When pellets deform on impact with air or each other inside the barrel, they scatter unpredictably. Copper-Lokt stays rounder and denser, which translates to more pellets staying in the pattern where you need them. At 1400 fps with a 1-1/4 ounce payload, these shells deliver the velocity and energy needed for confident shots beyond the typical close-range flush.
#4 shot strikes the sweet spot for late-season and open-field pheasant hunting. The larger pellets carry enough energy to penetrate tough feathering and body structure at ranges where smaller shot would lose effectiveness. This size works particularly well when birds are skittish and flushing wild, giving you reach without sacrificing pattern density. While #5 offers more pellets in the pattern, #4 trades pellet count for individual pellet power, which experienced hunters often prefer when hunting nervous roosters in sparse cover.
Remington's Power Piston wad design protects the shot charge through the firing sequence and helps produce those consistent patterns you're counting on. The 25-count box gives you enough for a solid day in the field without carrying too much extra weight.
#4 shot contains larger, heavier pellets that carry more energy at distance, making it ideal for late-season hunting when birds flush wild and farther away. #5 shot offers more pellets per shell for a denser pattern at closer range. If you're hunting open fields or expect longer shots beyond 35 yards, #4 is worth the trade-off in pellet count for the extra knockdown power.
Copper plating combined with high antimony content keeps pellets harder and rounder as they travel through your barrel and downrange. Softer shot deforms and scatters, breaking up your pattern. Harder, rounder pellets maintain their shape, fly truer, and stay grouped tighter for more consistent performance when it counts.
These can work early season, but #4 shot is really built for mid-to-late season or open country where you expect longer shots. Early-season birds often hold tighter and flush closer, where #5 or #6 shot will give you a denser pattern and work just as well. If you're hunting wide-open fields from the start, Nitro Pheasant #4 is a solid all-season choice.
These shells load to 1400 fps, which is moderate velocity. This speed provides good energy delivery without excessive recoil, making follow-up shots more manageable while still generating the power needed for clean kills at typical pheasant hunting ranges. You'll find this velocity reliable and consistent across quality shotguns.
