For hunters who demand maximum firepower from a standard 2.75 chamber, the B&P Heavy Pheasant delivers heavyweight performance without the need for magnum-length shells. This load packs a substantial 1 3/8 oz payloada density typically found in 3 shellsinto a standard hull, making it a versatile powerhouse for any 12-gauge shotgun. At the core of this shell is B&Ps legendary Gordon System, a specialized base designed to absorb the peak pressure of the shot. This technology significantly reduces the felt recoil of such a heavy payload, allowing you to maintain your cheek weld and stay on target for quick, decisive follow-up shots. When the birds are flushing wild and every pellet counts, this Italian-engineered load gives you the edge.
