Hornady BLACK 12 Gauge 2¾-inch 00 Buckshot ammunition is engineered to deliver consistent performance and dependable defensive capability. Each shotshell is assembled using quality components and carefully balanced propellants to ensure reliable ignition and smooth operation in a wide range of shotguns.
This load contains eight pellets of 00 buckshot, providing a balance of pattern density and stopping power for defensive applications. The carefully designed shot column helps maintain uniform pellet distribution and consistent terminal performance.
A key component of this ammunition is Hornady’s Versatite® wad technology, which helps produce tight, consistent shot patterns without requiring specialized choke tubes. The wad separates cleanly from the shot column after leaving the barrel, allowing the pellets to maintain tight groupings.
