FED GMSHK 22LR #12 LD SHOT 50/2500

Description

Federal’s Game-Shok .22 LR #12 bird shot is purpose-built for close-range pest control and small game work where a conventional bullet would be overkill or impractical. Loaded with a 25-grain charge of fine #12 lead shot in a brass-cased rimfire hull, each round releases a tight spread at short distances, making it a practical tool for dispatching snakes, rats, and similar nuisances without the penetration risks that come with a solid projectile.

The brass casing provides the structural integrity needed to hold shot under the crimp and cycle reliably through semi-automatic .22 LR rifles and revolvers chambered for this type of load, though shot shells generally perform most consistently from a smoothbore or rifle barrel in single-shot or manually operated actions where the shot column isn’t disturbed by feeding. At the muzzle, the shot exits in a compact pattern that opens gradually with distance, keeping the load effective within the short ranges where pest and small game work typically happens.

Packaged 50 rounds to a box, with cases available in 50-box lots, this is a practical shelf stock for anyone who keeps a .22 on the farm or in a camp bag. Federal manufactures this load under the Game-Shok line, which is oriented toward functional, working-use rimfire ammunition rather than precision target applications. If your use case calls for something that handles close-range pest situations without the noise, mess, or over-penetration of a full-power .22 LR solid, this load fills that role cleanly.
