Mini Shell, Maximum Fun
Federal's Shorty shotshells are engineered to deliver the performance of a standard 12 gauge load in a dramatically shorter package. The compact 1.75" hull allows you to fit significantly more rounds in your magazine tube, making these a favorite for shooters who want extended range sessions without constant reloading. Despite the reduced size, Federal's engineering ensures consistent patterns and reliable cycling in most pump-action shotguns with an adapter.
#8 shot is the classic choice for clay target shooting, skeet, and upland bird hunting, offering a dense cloud of small pellets that maximizes pattern density at typical sporting distances. Whether you're running through a box at the range, introducing a new shooter to the sport, or just looking for a fun and affordable way to run your shotgun, Federal Shorty #8 delivers the quality and consistency you expect from Federal Premium.
