This shotgun ammunition is loaded with special non-toxic pellets that are 26% denser than steel while being soft like lead. Made up of a combination of buffered and Nano treated pellets, each Double Classic shotshell load offers shooters deep penetration and tight patterns and will not damage barrels.
Classic Doubles ammunition features softer surface hardness which makes each load safe to use in older firearms. Each shotshell features a weather-resistant crimp which makes them ideal for waterfowl or upland bird hunting.

12 gauge is the most popular and useful shotgun gauges ever made. Suitable for everything from doves to geese. With sporting, military and law enforcement applications. Available in 2 ¾”, 3” and 3 ½”. The magnum lengths are generally preferred for waterfowl and turkey. Most major manufacturers produce guns and ammunition in a very wide septum for 12 gauge. Loads from ¾ oz. to 2 oz. are common with 1 1/8 oz Low base and 1 ¼ oz being the most common loadings. Target loads are normally around 1150 to 1200 FPS with High velocity lead loads tuning up 1350 FPS. Steel waterfowl loads tend to be loaded faster around 1500 FPS to compensate lower density shot. While the 2 ¾” loading is still the most popular ammunition made, nearly all current production guns have 3”or 3 ½” chambers. The shorter ammunition can be safely fired in longer chambers, but not all magnum semiautomatics will function with shorter shotshells. — Craig Boddington
