The Federal H2028 Game-Shok Heavy Field 20 gauge 2.75" shotgun ammunition delivers a full 1 ounce of #8 shot at 1165 fps—serious payload and velocity for a 20 gauge upland load. If you hunt quail, pheasant, grouse, or other birds in the brush and open fields, this is the kind of round that builds confidence. Twenty-five rounds per box keeps you stocked for a full day afield without breaking the bank like 12 gauge alternatives.
Federal engineered these shells around hard, spherical shot that patterns tight and clean. That hardness matters: softer pellets deform on the way down the barrel and through the air, opening patterns prematurely and leaving dead birds in the field. The brass-plated steel head and one-piece wad are designed to maximize the payload and protect chamber walls during firing. You get a non-corrosive primer and quality propellant selected for consistent ignition—the kind of reliability you want when the covey flushes.
Game-Shok Heavy Field loads occupy the sweet spot for upland hunters who prefer a 20 gauge's lighter recoil and handling but don't want to sacrifice effective range or pattern density. This is working ammunition, not a budget surprise; Federal's reputation in the field is built on loads like this one.
| Brand | Federal Ammunition | |
| Product Line | Game-Shok Heavy Field | |
| Gauge | 20 | |
| Shell Length | 2.75" | |
| Shot Weight | 1 ounce | |
| Shot Size | #8 | |
| Velocity | 1165 fps | |
| Rounds Per Box | 25 | |
| Primer Type | Non-corrosive |
#8 shot is the go-to choice for quail, pheasant, grouse, and other medium-sized upland birds hunted in typical field and brush conditions. The pellet count and energy retention at reasonable ranges make it effective for bird hunting without excessive damage to the meat.
This is a 2.75" shell, the standard length for most 20 gauge shotguns. Check your gun's chamber markings to confirm it's chambered for 2.75"—some older or specialty 20 gauges are marked 2.5" or 3". If you're unsure, contact the manufacturer or a gunsmith.
We don't have the exact pellet count in our data. Contact Federal directly or check their website for the precise pellet count at 1 ounce of #8 shot.
Each box contains 25 rounds of Federal Game-Shok Heavy Field 20 gauge ammunition.
