Frequently Asked Questions
What birds is the Federal Speed-Shok #2 steel load best suited for?
#2 steel shot is a versatile waterfowl choice ideal for medium to large ducks such as mallards, pintails, and divers, as well as smaller geese at moderate ranges. The 3.5" hull and 1 3/8 oz payload give you a dense, hard-hitting pattern that performs well from 30 to 50 yards.
Is steel shot safe to use in any 12-gauge shotgun?
Steel shot requires a shotgun with a barrel and choke rated for steel. Most modern waterfowl shotguns are steel-approved, but you should verify with your firearm's manufacturer. Avoid using steel shot with full or extra-full choke constrictions, as the harder shot can cause barrel damage. Modified or more open chokes are generally recommended for steel loads.
Why does Federal Speed-Shok produce less residue than other steel loads?
Federal redesigned the Speed-Shok line with a fast-burning, clean propellant and an improved high-performance primer. Together, these components achieve more complete combustion, which dramatically reduces the fouling left behind in your barrel and action — meaning fewer cleanings during extended hunts and more reliable cycling in semi-automatic shotguns.
