BASICS:

Gunfitter’s Take

20 gauge buckshot often gets overlooked, but modern loads like this can offer very practical performance while remaining more manageable for some shooters than full-power 12 gauge setups. The 18-pellet #2 buck configuration also provides dense patterns that work well for defensive and field-oriented applications.

The 3-inch shell does increase recoil compared to lighter 20 gauge loads, but many shooters still find it more controllable than comparable 12 gauge magnum buckshot. As always with buckshot, actual pattern performance will depend heavily on the individual shotgun and choke setup being used.

For shooters looking for capable 20 gauge buckshot with strong pattern density and dependable performance, the Federal Premium 20GA 3″ 2 Buck 18 Pellets is a very solid option.
