10 Rounds of 1 1/4 ounce #4 Buck 12ga Ammo by Sellier & Bellot

12 gauge shotguns have long been the favorite long-gun choice for home defense. Some proponents of shotguns prefer pump models for the sound they make when a round is chambered while others just like the overall power they deliver; either way, it’s important to make sure the correct ammunition is used. Although it might seem like a good idea to use slugs or 00 buckshot, reality is both options produce too much power for use in a home. They can easily over-penetrate, blasting through the intended target and right on through a wall or door behind them, striking an innocent person on the other side. Using a round loaded with #4 buckshot, like these from Sellier and Bellot, is a better option because it gives you the power of a shotgun without the massive over-penetration.

Sellier and Bellot produces these rounds for your 12-gauge shotgun. Each round is 2 ¾” long and filled with 27 pellets of #4 buckshot. These shotshells contain a 1 ¼ ounce load, which provides substantial power for propelling the buckshot within towards targets at incredible speeds, not to mention with compelling force. Each round leaves the barrel of your shotgun at a muzzle velocity of 1185 feet per second. These rounds are a good choice for home defense and can also be used to hunt smaller game such as rabbits and foxes. Of course, you can always use them for target practice, too, or too annihilate pumpkins and watermelons.

There are 10 shotshells in this single box of ammunition. With 10 rounds you can get a taste for what this ammunition can do, so just think what you can do with more. Order one box to give your shotgun a snack and to get a feel for these rounds, and order multiple boxes to get some serious trigger time in. Sellier and Bellot was founded in 1825, and with almost 200 years of experience behind them you can be sure they have the production process down pat. Manufacturing takes place at their longtime factory in Vlasim, Czech Republic. All ammo is loaded according to high standards and SAAMI or CIP specifications.
