Deep Dive

Overview

The Aguila Minishell 12 gauge Ammunition 1-3/4" 5/8 oz #4 and #1 Buckshot 11 Pellets is engineered to serve those seeking a reduced-recoil shooting option without sacrificing the functionality and defense capabilities of traditional shotgun shells. Ideal for use in both semi-automatic and pump-action shotguns, these shells expand the load capacity of your firearm and provide diverse utility in hunting, home defense, and target shooting applications. By optimizing the size to 1-3/4 inches, shooters can experience less shoulder fatigue while maintaining effective shot dispersion and target impact.

History and Development

Aguila Ammunition, established in Mexico, has become synonymous with high-quality, precision-loaded ammunition, becoming an industry leader thanks to its innovative solutions like the Minishell. The development of the minishell concept is rooted in the need for a versatile shell that maximizes magazine storage without reducing the effectiveness of delivered shots. The combination of multiple buckshot sizes, such as #4B and #1B in a single cartridge, further highlights its innovative approach to ammunition design.

Common Questions and FAQs

  • How is this ammunition packaged, and are bulk options available?
    This ammunition is available for purchase in bulk quantities with free shipping options, making it cost-effective for high-volume shooters.
  • Are these shells compatible with all 12-gauge shotguns?

  • What is the intended purpose of using different sizes of buckshot in one shell?

  • What precautions should be taken when using Aguila Minishells?
    Always ensure your shotgun is compatible with minishells to avoid cycling issues and check that the correct caliber is being used.
  • Are these minishells reloadable?

Why It Stands Out:

Aguila Minishell 12 Gauge Ammunition offers shooters a unique combination of compactness, power, and versatility. Perfect for hunters and tactical users alike, these minishells deliver increased magazine capacity while maintaining effective stopping power with their dual-size buckshot load. Aguila continues its reputation for premium quality with these innovative shells, providing reliable ammunition made with the precision and attention to detail that ensures each shot performs to its fullest potential.

These Mini Shells are Awesome in my Shockwave fitted with a feed adapter!! Lets you have 9 in the tube and 1 in the chamber!
Comments and Reviews on Aguila Minishell 12 Gauge Ammo 1-3/4" 5/8 oz #4 and #1 Buckshot 11 Pellets - 1CHB1288
I found these at Target Sports at the best price. However, these have cycling issues in both my Remington 870 and the Mossberg requires an adapter that is unreliable. I consider these a novelty round. I've found 2 1/4 shells that give me one more round in the TAC-14 and Shockwave in both Slug and Buck that I trust for tactical use and home defense.

These are going in my wife's shotgun. Get the opsol miniclip with it and you will have a high capacity beast for home protection.
Comments and Reviews on Aguila Minishell 12 Gauge Ammo 1-3/4" 5/8 oz #4 and #1 Buckshot 11 Pellets - 1CHB1288
From a Shockwave to a KSG this is the ammo to stock up on. Not good for long range work, but it almost doubles your capacity. Perfect for up close and personal.
Comments and Reviews on Aguila Minishell 12 Gauge Ammo 1-3/4" 5/8 oz #4 and #1 Buckshot 11 Pellets - 1CHB1288
Fits my Shockwave with the rubber-plug adapter. Very very comfortable to shoot, and it makes an effective home-defense round. Thank you!
Comments and Reviews on Aguila Minishell 12 Gauge Ammo 1-3/4" 5/8 oz #4 and #1 Buckshot 11 Pellets - 1CHB1288
Super fun to shoot almost so recoil!
Comments and Reviews on Aguila Minishell 12 Gauge Ammo 1-3/4" 5/8 oz #4 and #1 Buckshot 11 Pellets - 1CHB1288
Soft shooting, but super destructive on target. Great stuff!
Comments and Reviews on Aguila Minishell 12 Gauge Ammo 1-3/4" 5/8 oz #4 and #1 Buckshot 11 Pellets - 1CHB1288
This is some interesting added-capacity, reduced recoil buckshot that will work okay on some platforms and not okay on others. The shortened case length doesn't always line up with the weapon's extractor and might cause a jam based on your preferred platform. Spreads out the usual 1" for every yard downrange. Way over priced for what you get, but this is specialty "boutique" ammo from our neighbors south of the border. Brass plated rims insure positive feeds.
Comments and Reviews on Aguila Minishell 12 Gauge Ammo 1-3/4" 5/8 oz #4 and #1 Buckshot 11 Pellets - 1CHB1288
The shells wouldn’t cycle in the shotgun that I bought them for, but ran fine in my single shot. Like the shells for what they are and will buy more.
