More Rounds, Same Punch
Federal's Shorty shotshells are engineered to deliver the terminal performance of a standard 12 gauge load in a dramatically shorter package. The 1.75" hull allows you to fit significantly more rounds in your magazine tube — a major advantage for home defense, competition shooting, or any situation where capacity matters. Despite the compact size, Federal's engineering ensures consistent patterns and reliable cycling in most pump-action shotguns with an adapter.
#4 buckshot is a versatile choice that bridges the gap between birdshot and larger buckshot sizes, offering a dense pattern of 15 pellets with enough energy for effective close-range performance. Whether you're running drills at the range, exploring the unique capabilities of mini-shells, or looking for a fun and effective home defense option, Federal Shorty delivers the quality and consistency you expect from Federal Premium.
