Federal Shorty shotshell ammunition delivers serious performance in a compact package. These 12 gauge 1-3/4" shells load 15 pellets of #4 buckshot and generate a muzzle velocity of 1200 fps—giving you the stopping power and pattern density you need for home defense, predator control, or tactical training without the length of standard magnum loads. Whether you're working with a shorter-stroked shotgun, suppressor-equipped platform, or just prefer less recoil, Shorty shells let you maintain full buckshot capability on your own terms.
The 1-3/4" form factor makes these rounds ideal for shotguns with restricted magazine wells, bullpup designs, or any setup where standard 2-3/4" or 3" shells create feeding or cycling issues. You get comparable energy and shot placement to full-size counterparts, which means your patterns stay tight and your hits stay lethal downrange. Federal's consistent quality control ensures reliable ignition and uniform pellet distribution every time—no surprises when it counts.
A box of 10 gives you enough for a serious training session, home-defense staging, or a predator hunt without breaking the bank. Load them in pairs for doubles, or keep a full magazine ready. Shorty shotshells have earned a following among competitive shooters and practical operators who refuse to compromise performance for convenience.

Yes. Shorty shells chamber and fire in any 12 gauge shotgun. The 1-3/4" length is the primary advantage for firearms with shorter magazine tubes, restricted feeding systems, or compact actions, but they function in conventional 12 gauges as well.
Federal Shorty shells deliver comparable energy and accuracy to standard-length counterparts despite their compact design. You get 15 pellets of #4 buckshot at 1200 fps, providing effective pattern and penetration suitable for defense and hunting applications.
These rounds excel in home defense, predator control, tactical training, and any scenario where you want full buckshot performance with less recoil and improved handling. They're also the solution for shotguns with limited magazine capacity or shorter receiver designs.
Each box contains 10 rounds of Federal Shorty 12 gauge 1-3/4" #4 buckshot ammunition.
