Performance Features
The Golden Pheasant load is engineered with high-quality components that enhance its effectiveness in the field. The nickel plating on the lead shot helps maintain the shape of each pellet during ignition, preventing deformation and ensuring a dense shot pattern upon firing. This design contributes to improved accuracy and lethality, which are crucial when hunting fast-moving game like pheasants.

The ammunition’s reloadable yellow hull is constructed to store a consistent charge of clean-burning powder. When ignited, this powder propels the wad down the barrel efficiently, achieving a muzzle velocity of 1200 fps. This speed provides adequate energy for effective range performance while maintaining manageable recoil for shooters.

Hunting Application
Ideal for upland game bird hunting, particularly pheasants, this load offers hunters the necessary power and precision to take down birds effectively. The combination of shot size and weight allows for optimal penetration while minimizing excessive meat damage, making it suitable for both sport shooting and culinary purposes.
