Federal Shorty Shotshell 12GA 1.75" #4 Buckshot – 10 Rounds

Federal Shorty Shotshells deliver full-power 12-gauge performance in a compact 1.75-inch hull, designed specifically for firearms with reduced magazine tube capacity or short-action lengths. This load features #4 buckshot—15 pellets of .24-caliber lead—optimized for close-range defensive applications where moderate penetration and wide pattern spread are priorities. The shortened shell length allows compatible shotguns to carry significantly more rounds without extending overall length.

These shells function reliably in pump-action and semi-automatic shotguns designed to cycle 1.75-inch shells. Standard 12-gauge shotguns require factory modification or aftermarket components to feed and cycle Shorty rounds properly. Each round uses a low-recoil load that maintains effectiveness while reducing felt impulse. Sold in 10-round boxes; 100 rounds per case. Federal brass-plated steel heads and reliable ignition components ensure consistent performance.
