Winchester Long Beard XR 12 Gauge 3" - Maximum Energy with #4 Shot

Dominate the turkey woods with Winchester Long Beard XR featuring #4 shot, engineered for hunters who demand maximum individual pellet energy and bone-crushing penetration. This 12 gauge 3" shell delivers a powerful 1 3/4 oz payload of copper-plated lead shot protected by revolutionary Shot-Lok Technology, providing the knockdown power of heavier-than-lead loads at a fraction of the cost.

Shot-Lok Technology Revolution

Winchester's exclusive Shot-Lok Technology uses a hardened resin matrix that encapsulates each pellet, protecting it from deformation during firing. This groundbreaking innovation maintains pellet roundness through the barrel and choke, resulting in tighter patterns, 10% greater penetration at 50 yards compared to standard lead loads, and dramatically extended effective range.

#4 Shot Maximum Impact

The #4 shot size delivers the largest individual pellet energy in the Long Beard XR lineup, making it ideal for hunters who prefer maximum knockdown power per pellet. These larger pellets provide devastating penetration on mature gobblers, particularly effective for close to medium-range hunting scenarios where individual pellet impact is paramount.

Performance That Exceeds Expectations

Long Beard XR with #4 shot delivers pattern densities that rival premium tungsten ammunition while maintaining the proven effectiveness of copper-plated lead. The substantial 1 3/4 oz payload provides excellent pattern coverage, while the Shot-Lok resin ensures each pellet maintains its lethal potential from muzzle to target.
