Whether you need to stock up on shells before hunting season starts or you need reliable home defense rounds, Fetter has you covered. Since 2001, they have been producing high-quality 12 gauge ammo for customers around the world. Their 00-buck shotshells are one of their most popular varieties for shotguns, measuring in at 2.75 inches and packing a powerful punch in all situations. They also use brass casings around the shells to help reduce wear and tear and corrosion on your shotgun after repeated use.
This type of shotgun shell, also known as double-aught buck, refers to the size of the projectiles inside the shell. It is named because it is most commonly used for hunting deer and other medium- to large-size game. Specifically, 00 buck has 9 large projectiles in each shell. Each one of these projectiles is .330 in caliber, and leave the shotgun at about 1,300 feet per second (fps). This means that the large projectiles are traveling fast enough to pack a powerful punch, even at longer ranges, which is perfect for hunting, as you often can't get closer than 40 to 50 yards to the animal. Using fewer projectiles also means that the grouping stays tighter at a distance, increasing your accuracy. This is also why it is prized as a home defense option, as it has incredible stopping power.
