Remington Nitro Pheasant Upland 12 gauge shotshells are purpose-built for hunters who take pheasant seriously. Loaded with 1 1/4 oz of #4 shot in a standard 2.75" hull, these rounds deliver the pattern density and penetration pheasants demand—especially when birds flush wild and you need to connect at distance. The Copper-Lokt shot pellets are hardened with high antimony content, which keeps them rounder as they travel downrange, producing tighter, more consistent patterns and deeper energy transfer on impact. If you hunt pheasants hard, you'll appreciate ammunition engineered specifically for the job rather than a one-size-fits-all load.
These loads deliver 1400 fps muzzle velocity, a moderate speed that balances recoil and pattern performance—smart for upland hunting where you might shoot multiple rounds over a day in the field. A box of 25 rounds gives you enough to pattern your gun and get through a solid hunting trip without breaking the bank. Remington's decades in the upland ammunition game shows here: the Nitro Pheasant line exists because hunters asked for loads that handle tough roosters and hens better than generic birdshot.
Whether you're working a agricultural area, CRP grass, or river breaks, Nitro Pheasant rounds pair well with modified or full chokes and 12 gauge shotguns already in your cabinet. If you're reloading or comparing options, note the #4 shot size—it's the classic pheasant choice for range and stopping power.

#4 shot is the industry standard for pheasant. It balances range, pattern density, and pellet energy—larger than #6 or #7.5 target loads but smaller than magnum loads. Remington Nitro Pheasant in #4 is a proven choice for roosters and hens across typical upland terrain.
Yes, Nitro Pheasant loads are standard 2.75" shells and will chamber in any 12 gauge shotgun. Always consult your gun's manual to confirm it accepts 2.75" ammunition and is appropriate for hunting use.
Remington Nitro Pheasant uses Copper-Lokt shot hardened with high antimony, which keeps pellets rounder and produces tighter patterns with greater penetration than softer lead shot. This matters on tough birds and longer shots typical of upland hunting.
A box of 25 rounds gives you plenty to test your gun at different distances and choke combinations before heading afield. We'd recommend shooting at paper targets at 20, 30, and 40 yards to understand how your specific gun patterns Nitro Pheasant loads.
