This load from Sellier & Bellot puts 12 pellets of #1 buckshot downrange in each shell, which is the sweet spot most hunters reach for when they want more hits than 00 buck but still need serious stopping power. At 1214 fps, you get a payload of 1-1/8 ounces that stays tighter than heavier shot would, and the smaller .30" diameter pellets group more consistently. That means tighter patterns at range and more predictable performance when you need it.
The reason experienced hunters and sport shooters prefer this over other buckshot loads is simple: it responds well to chokes and shoots tighter patterns. You get the benefits of buckshot stopping power without the loose spread you'd see from 00 buck. That 12-pellet count ensures you'll put more projectiles on target, especially on moving game or at slightly longer ranges.
These shells use Boxer primers so they're reloadable if you're into that. The lead shot is consistently sized and cast hard by a manufacturer with nearly 200 years of experience making ammunition. Each box contains 25 shells, and they come packed in cases of 10 boxes. Sellier & Bellot doesn't cut corners on components, and it shows in performance you can count on.
Whether you're hunting medium-sized game like deer or coyotes, running drills at the range, or stocking for sport shooting, this is one of the few buckshot loads that genuinely works well out of the box in most shotgun barrels. The 2-3/4" shells work in standard 12 gauge shotguns, and the load strikes a balance between pattern density and penetration that's hard to beat at the price point.
#1 buck uses smaller .30" pellets instead of .33" for 00 buck, which means you get roughly 12 pellets per shell versus 9 with 00. The tighter pattern density gives you more holes on target and responds better to chokes. It's slightly less penetrative than 00 buck but still has serious stopping power for hunting and sport shooting.
Yes. These shells use Boxer primers and come with plastic hulls and brass bases, making them suitable for reloading. Many shooters reload Sellier & Bellot shells because the components are well-made and consistent for handloading applications.
This load patterns well and stays effective from close range out to 30-40 yards depending on your shotgun's choke and barrel. Most field use happens well within that range. As always, it's worth patterning your specific shotgun with these shells at the distances you anticipate shooting to see how they group in your gun.
Yes, these 2-3/4" shells work in standard 12 gauge shotguns that accept 2-3/4" or longer shells. They'll cycle reliably in pump, semi-auto, and break-action 12 gauge shotguns. Always make sure your shotgun is properly maintained and you're familiar with its operation before shooting any ammunition.
