Federal Shotgun Ammo & Ammunition | Bullets

How many types of Federal shotgun ammo are there?

This is a tricky question, because of the wide variety of types of shotgun shells available on the market. In addition to Federal 12 Gauge Ammo, they also make 10 gauge, 20 gauge, 16 gauge, 28 gauge, and 410 bore shotshells. They can be loaded with any shot size from #9 birdshot on up to Buckshot, rifled or sabot slugs, and either nontoxic or lead shot. Depending on the gauge, they offer shell lengths ranging from the Shorty Shotshells at a wee 1-3/4 inch all the way up to magnum 3-1/2 inch loads. Those shells can be loaded with different shot weights, too.

They offer non-toxic shotshells for waterfowl hunters like Black Cloud, copper-plated, tungsten, bismuth, and steel shot. You can get a game load upland hunters will swoon over when they go after pheasant. There are target loads for sporting clays and trap shooting. The variety of Federal Premium shotshells is so wide that it's really hard to nail it down to a single number, especially since they come out with new products all the time!
