Deep Dive

Overview

Stars & Stripes Ammo 12 Gauge Steel Load is crafted for waterfowl hunters who demand exceptional performance in line with environmental regulations mandating the use of non-toxic shot. Its steel construction addresses these concerns, providing lead-free functionality without compromising on lethality or accuracy. The 3-inch shells are crafted to produce tight shot patterns effectively over both short and long distances, making them suitable for shooting ducks, geese, and other migratory birds typically found in wetlands.

History and Development

Originating from a reputed manufacturer in Italy, Stars & Stripes Ammunition has long been recognized for applying meticulous quality controls to their production to ensure reliable load consistency and ballistic performance. The integration of Cheddite's internationally recognized craftsmanship and advanced ballistic materials culminates in the Steel Load series. Extensive research and development have gone into optimizing this 12 Gauge ammunition for both standard and magnum velocity offerings, ensuring superior downrange performance.
