Frequently Asked Questions
What birds is Federal Speed-Shok #4 steel best suited for?
#4 steel shot is an excellent all-around waterfowl load, performing well on ducks at ranges up to about 40 yards. It's particularly effective on medium to larger ducks like mallards, teal, and similar birds. For geese or longer shots, you may want to step up to a larger shot size such as #2 or BB.
Is this ammunition safe to use in any 12-gauge shotgun?
Steel shot requires a shotgun with a steel-shot-compatible barrel and choke. You should use no tighter than a Modified choke with steel shot to prevent potential barrel damage. Most modern waterfowl shotguns are rated for steel, but always consult your firearm's owner's manual before use. Older, fixed full-choke guns may not be suitable.
What makes Speed-Shok cleaner than other steel shot loads?
Federal reformulated Speed-Shok with a fast-burning, clean propellant that significantly reduces the carbon fouling and residue left behind in your barrel and action. Combined with a high-performance primer for complete ignition, you get more consistent shot-to-shot performance and less time scrubbing your gun after a long hunt.
