Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

Winchester Super-X has been the go-to choice for upland hunters for generations, and this #5 shot load carries on that tradition with the speed and consistency you need when birds take flight. Loaded to 1330 fps, these shells pack 1 1/4 ounces of lead shot in a 2-3/4 inch case that feeds smoothly through most 12-gauge shotguns.
The #5 shot size hits a sweet spot for medium-range shooting on birds like pheasants and grouse. You get enough pellets in each shot for a dense pattern that won't leave gaps when birds are flushing at moderate distances. The payload travels quick enough to reach out past the close-range chaos, but the pellets maintain enough energy to drop birds cleanly without destroying meat on smaller species. This is why #5 remains one of the most respected shot sizes among field hunters who need one load that covers multiple scenarios without compromise.
Winchester's one-piece hinged wad design does two things well: it keeps your patterns tight and consistent, and it helps control recoil so you're not beaten up after a full day in the field. The high brass hull and 209 primer combination means reliable ignition whether you're starting the day in cool morning conditions or pushing into the afternoon. Winchester uses clean-burning powder throughout the Super-X line, so you'll notice less fouling in your barrel and more predictable velocity from shot to shot.
Beyond upland birds, plenty of hunters reach for #5 shot when working small game or hunting from a blind. The balance of pattern density and penetration makes it versatile without being a compromise cartridge. Each box contains 25 rounds.
#5 shot is ideal for medium-range upland hunting, particularly pheasants, grouse, and similar-sized birds. It provides a good balance between pellet count for pattern density and individual pellet energy for clean kills. Many hunters also use it for general small game and field work where versatility matters.
The one-piece hinged wad promotes consistent, tight shot patterns by controlling how the pellets separate after leaving the barrel. It also reduces felt recoil, making the shooting experience more comfortable during extended hunting sessions. This design is one of the reasons Winchester Super-X loads are known for reliability and accuracy in the field.
These are standard 2-3/4 inch high-brass shells that are compatible with most modern and traditional 12-gauge shotguns designed for that length. However, always verify your shotgun's specifications before shooting any ammunition. Some older or lighter-built shotguns may have limitations, so check your owner's manual or contact the manufacturer if you're unsure.
Super-X stands out for its combination of high brass construction for reliable feeding and ignition, the one-piece hinged wad for consistent patterns, and clean-burning powder that reduces fouling. These quality components add up to dependable performance across different hunting conditions without the premium price tag of some specialty loads.
