History of 12 Gauge Shotgun Shells

The 12 gauge is the most used shotgun shell today, and it has existed in its current cartridge configuration since the late 1800s. Twelve gauge rounds, often seen as 12ga, are used in various situations, including hunting birds and small game, recreational shooting, and home defense.

These ammunitions provide various options in close quarters but don’t perform well at long-distance shots because the projectiles quickly lose their velocity; they require a close-range target, typically 45 yards or less.

    When I bought a used Mossberg-manufactured12ga fully rifled slug barrel for my Remington 870, I bought several different brands and loadings of slugs to pattern from the bench. These slugs shot the tightest groups of ANY I tried, had manageable recoil and were among the least expensive per round. I had Brenneke-style slugs, plain rifled Foster unsaboted slugs, as well as a couple of the newer saboted, all copper and copper hollow-point types costing $3-$4 or more per round. Some 2 3/4" and some 3". I see no reason to sue any other brand or load in my particular shotgun.
