FEDERAL 20 GA - 3" - 1 OZ - #4 - 25 RDS/BOX
Federal Black Cloud FS Steel in 20 GA 3" with 1 oz of #4 shot delivers devastating waterfowl performance, combining the legendary Flightcontrol wad system with clean-burning propellants for consistent, lethal patterns in any hunting condition.
- Flightcontrol wad produces tight, consistent patterns through ported and standard chokes
- Rear-deploying petals separate payload from wad at the optimal moment for density
- Side-mounted vents stabilize wad flight for repeatable, predictable shot patterns
- High-performance primer ignites cleanly and reliably across a wide temperature range
- Clean-burning, temperature-stable propellant drastically reduces barrel fouling and residue
- Sealed crimp construction locks out moisture in wet, demanding waterfowl environments

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Federal Black Cloud FS Steel approved for hunting in steel-shot-required zones?
Yes. Federal Black Cloud FS Steel uses non-toxic steel shot, making it fully compliant for use in areas that require non-toxic shot for waterfowl hunting, including wetlands and federal refuges. Always verify local regulations before hunting to ensure compliance.
Will the Flightcontrol wad work with my ported waterfowl choke?
Absolutely. The redesigned Flightcontrol FS wad is specifically engineered to perform through both ported and standard choke tubes, delivering tight, consistent patterns regardless of your choke style. This makes it highly versatile across a wide range of 20-gauge shotguns and choke configurations.
How does #4 steel shot perform for duck and goose hunting at typical ranges?
#4 steel shot is a proven, versatile choice for ducks at ranges up to about 40 yards, offering a strong balance of pellet count and energy on target. For larger waterfowl like geese, it's best used at closer ranges. Federal's Black Cloud wad technology maximizes pattern density, helping ensure clean, ethical kills at typical hunting distances.
