12 Gauge - 2-3/4" 00 Buck - Winchester Double-X - 5 Rounds

If you don't mind the kick, this powerful 00 buckshot load is a great choice for deer and predator elimination. Each 2-3/4" shell in this box of 5 fires nine pellets of copper plated buckshot at a muzzle velocity of 1,450 feet per second. This is an average-sized payload fired at a very high muzzle velocity and it produces stout recoil to match. In a hunting situation, such a combination gives you more reach and better patterning and makes it easier to stalk your quarry since you won't have to get quite as close. You'll only get one shot either way, so the recoil isn't that big of a deal. While this ammo can be used for home defense, it is almost too powerful for this purpose in all but the most rural areas and will readily overpenetrate. Its stiff recoil also becomes more of a downside since you won't be able to make the follow up shots that a self-defense situation sometimes requires. Winchester Double-X shotshells are loaded in Oxford, Mississippi using high quality powders and polymer Grex buffers. The buffers work well with the copper-plated shot to reduce the chance of "flyers" straying from the pattern and wasting their energy.

Browning Silver Hunter

The Browning(R) Silver Hunter(TM) Matte is a lightweight, fast handling semi-auto shotgun that's designed with upland bird hunting in mind; though its self-adjusting Active Valve gas system increases its versatility to include most any type of wing shooting or shooting sport. The Active Valve gas system vents excess gas out the top of the forearm, and away from the receiver for clean, reliable operation with 2-3/4" and 3" shells, without the need or adjustment. The Silver Hunter Matte model comes with a matte blued barrel, a 2-tone silver/black receiver, and a checkered Turkish walnut stock with a brown, ventilated recoil pad. The semi-humpback receiver design with a ventilated rib and brass front bead creates a sight picture that's quick to pick up and swing on moving targets. The barrel comes back bored and threaded for Browning's Invector-Plus choke tubes (includes IC, M, & F) to deliver consistently tight shot patterns. The low recoiling Browning Silver Hunter Matte Semi-Auto Shotgun allows for fast follow-up shots and all-day shooting comfort on the clays range or wing shooting.Lightweight and fast handling2-tone silver/black receiverBlued barrelTurkish walnut stockVentilated recoil padActive Valve gas systemCycles 2-3/4" and 3" shellsVent rib and brass front beadInvector-Plus choke tubesBack bored barrel
