Frequently Asked Questions
What birds are #8 shot best suited for?
#8 shot is ideal for smaller, lighter upland birds such as quail, dove, and woodcock at typical flushing distances of 20–35 yards. The smaller pellet size produces a dense, even pattern that maximizes your chances of a clean kill on fast-moving birds. It is less ideal for larger game birds like pheasant at long range, where a heavier shot size such as #5 or #6 would be more appropriate.
Will these shells cycle reliably in semi-automatic shotguns?
Remington Game Loads are standard-velocity target and field loads. Most modern semi-automatic shotguns cycle reliably with 1 oz loads at standard velocities, but lighter loads may not cycle in gas-operated actions tuned for heavier 1⅛ oz shells. We recommend consulting your firearm's owner manual or testing a box before committing to a large quantity for hunting season.
Can I use these shells for sporting clays or trap practice?
Yes — Remington Game Loads with #8 shot are a popular and affordable option for both sporting clays and informal trap or skeet practice. The fine #8 pellets produce the dense patterns needed to consistently break clay targets at standard distances. Keep in mind that some competitive shooting venues require specific loads, so check local range rules before use in sanctioned events.
