S&B 12GA 2.75 1.12OZ 00 9PEL 25/250

Description

Sellier & Bellot’s 00 buckshot is a straightforward choice for home defense, patrol use, or range training where you want factory ammunition with consistent performance and no frills. Each shell carries nine pellets, which is the standard count for 00 buck in a 2¾-inch hull and means you get a full, conventional payload rather than a reduced-pellet reduced-recoil load — useful when you want to train under the same conditions you’d rely on in a serious situation.

The felt wad is a traditional felt construction rather than a plastic cup wad. Felt wads have a longer history in European shotshell manufacturing and tend to produce slightly different downrange patterns compared to plastic cup designs, though the practical difference at defensive distances is modest. What matters more is that S&B loads these shells to a muzzle velocity of 1,214 fps, which puts them in standard-velocity territory — not a reduced-recoil load, and not a magnum. That velocity figure means the load will cycle reliably in gas-operated semi-automatic shotguns that struggle with lighter loads, while still being manageable in a pump for extended training sessions.

Sellier & Bellot is a Czech manufacturer with a long production history, and their shotshells are built to consistent dimensional standards that feed and extract reliably across a wide range of 12-gauge platforms. Rounds are boxed 25 per box and packed 10 boxes to the case, making case purchases practical for anyone who shoots or trains in volume.
