B&P Valle Steel 12ga 2 3/4" 32gm Steel Shot 25 Rounds

High-Velocity Italian Precision for the Wetland Hunter

When hunting over waterways where non-toxic shot is legally required, you need a steel cartridge that hits with the authority of traditional lead. Manufactured in Italy by the legendary Baschieri & Pellagri, the B&P Valle Steel line is engineered specifically to conquer the challenging conditions of the duck blind. Combining high velocities with incredibly tight quality control, these 12-gauge cartridges deliver the dense patterns and deep penetration needed to reliably fold tough, fast-flying waterfowl.

Loaded into a versatile 2 3/4-inch (70mm) hull, this specific cartridge pushes a heavy 32-gram (approximately 1 1/8 oz) payload of high-density steel shot at a blistering 440 m/s (1443 fps). This extra velocity is critical for steel shot, which significantly shortens your required forward lead on fast-crossing mallards and ensures maximum kinetic energy transfer upon impact.

To protect your shotgun's barrel from the hardened steel pellets, the Valle Steel utilises a specialised, full-protection plastic shot cup. This advanced wad prevents barrel scoring while holding the shot column together longer, ensuring a tight, effective pattern at extended decoying ranges. Driven by B&P's proprietary, clean-burning powder, this is a premium, high-performance waterfowl load designed for the serious wetland hunter.

• High-Velocity Performance: Pushed at an aggressive 440 m/s (1443 fps) to maximise downrange energy and reduce the necessary lead on fast-moving birds.
• Full-Protection Wad: Features a heavy-duty, engineered plastic shot cup that fully encapsulates the steel pellets to completely protect your barrel steel from scoring.
• Optimised Payload: The 32-gram payload provides an excellent balance of high pellet count for dense patterns and manageable recoil for fast follow-up shots.
• B&P Proprietary Powder: Loaded with Baschieri & Pellagri's world-renowned, temperature-stable powders for incredibly consistent pressures in cold, damp hunting conditions.
• Non-Toxic Compliance: 100% steel construction makes it fully compliant with environmental regulations for hunting over wetlands and waterways.
