The Baschieri & Pellagri (B&P) Valle Steel 20ga is a high-performance, non-toxic steel shot cartridge specifically engineered for the modern 20-gauge waterfowler. Packed into a 3-inch (76mm) magnum hull, this heavy 28-gram (1 oz) payload of premium steel shot delivers the dense patterns and knockdown power required for shooting ducks and geese over decoys, without the heavy recoil often associated with a 12-gauge.

A standout feature of the Valle Steel line is the incorporation of B&P's legendary Gordon System hull. This patented shock-absorbing base acts as a dampener, significantly reducing the sharp felt recoil and muzzle jump typically associated with 3-inch magnum steel loads. This allows for faster, more accurate follow-up shots when a mob of mallards drops into the spread.

To protect your shotgun's barrel from the hardened steel shot, B&P utilises a specialised, extra-thick plastic cup wad. This wad is pre-slit to ensure a clean, consistent release of the shot column the moment it leaves the muzzle, resulting in devastatingly tight patterns even in freezing, damp conditions.

• Magnum 3-Inch Hull: Carries a heavy 28-gram (1 oz) payload of steel, maximising pellet count for dense, effective patterns on tough waterfowl.

• Gordon System Technology: The proprietary shock-absorbing base cartridge case drastically reduces felt recoil, making this heavy load incredibly comfortable to shoot out of a lightweight 20-gauge field gun.

• Specialised Steel Wad: Features a thick-walled, pre-cut plastic wad that completely encapsulates the steel payload, protecting your barrel from scoring while ensuring uniform pattern density.

• High-Velocity Performance: Loaded with premium B&P powder to achieve high velocities, minimising the forward lead required on fast-crossing ducks.

• Eco-Friendly & Legal: 100% non-toxic steel shot, fully compliant with regulations for waterfowl hunting over public waterways.
