The Remington Nitro Steel 12ga 3" is a high-performance shotshell engineered for hunters who demand consistency and reliable impact. These high-velocity waterfowl loads offer precision patterning, zinc-plated shot, and all-weather reliability, ensuring that every trigger pull delivers a predictable cloud of steel.

This Remington Nitro Steel load focuses on uniform shot size and high-velocity flight for superior performance in the field.

• Zinc-Plated Premier Steel: 100% round, high-grade steel pellets are zinc-plated to corrosion. This plating reduces friction between pellets, ensuring they remain perfectly spherical for truer flight and deeper penetration.

• Wet-Pruf™ Sealed System: Built for the marsh, these shells feature a proprietary sealant at both the primer and the crimp, guaranteeing ignition reliability even in torrential rain or snow.

• High-Velocity Output: Designed to push payloads at speeds up to 1450 FPS, Nitro Steel reduces the "lead" required on fast-moving birds and ensures maximum kinetic energy at the 40-yard mark.

• Custom-Tapered Wad: The heavy-duty, four-petal shot cup protects your barrel and provides a controlled release of the shot column for uniform patterns.

The defining characteristic of Remington Nitro Steel is its ability to maintain a dense, central pattern at ethical hunting distances. By using uniform, zinc-plated pellets, Remington achieves superior Shot-to-Target percentages compared to standard steel loads.

• 40-Yard Performance: When tested through a standard Modified Choke, Nitro Steel typically delivers up to 80% of its total pellet count into a 30-inch circle at 40 yards.

• The " Zone" Advantage: While "budget" steel loads often drop below 60% at this range, creating large "holes" in the pattern, Nitro Steel maintains a centre-dense distribution. This ensures that even if your aim is slightly off-centre, you are still putting a sufficient number of pellets on the bird.

• Uniform Stringing: Because every pellet is the same size and weight, the "shot string" (the length of the cloud in the air) is shorter. This means more of your payload arrives at the bird at the exact same time, rather than trickling past in a long, thin line.
