If you’ve ever said that 12 Gauge ammunition can’t be “cute,” then prepare to eat your words. Federal Premium’s Shorty Shotshells are 1 inch shorter than normal! This is the same ammo Munchkins would use for target shooting, and we bet Oompa Loompas would find good use for it as well.
With great shortness comes a lighter shot column: 15/16 ounces, which comes out to 384 pellets of #8 shot. Still a lot of pellets, all things considered. This round’s 1,145 fps muzzle velocity isn’t unconventional for a target load, but you’re necessarily going to feel less recoil when you’re talking about such a light pile of lead shot.
Firing this ammo is just plain fun – something everyone ought to experience at least once, like drinking a ginger ale float. Use it to teach a young one how to handle a shotgun. Use it to harm rodents. Place one of these shells next to a couple of 3” magnums, take a photo, and voilà! The most redneck pregnancy announcement in human history.
This ammo may not function correctly in unmodified pump-action shotguns. It cannot function in semi-autos.
