Federal’s Vital-shok ammunition line is the go-to load forhunters of large game such as deer. Hunting deer with a shotgun requires atight spread and a lot of knockdown power, which this 12 gauge Vital-shok loadbrings in spades. Each shell in this box of 5 uses a dozen lead pellets platedwith copper to help them resist deformation and strike the target in aconsistent pattern. Combine that with Federal’s buffers, shot cup, a proprietaryspiral stacking system, and a propellant load that achieves 1290 feet persecond out of the muzzle and you have a powerful shotshell for hunting andpersonal defense.
