Federal, Estate, Super Sport, 12 Gauge 2.75", #7.5, 1-1/8 oz, 25 Round Box

Specifications

The Fed Estate SS 12ga 2.75" #7.5 ammunition is designed for performance and accuracy in various shooting scenarios. Here are the critical specifications:

Bullet Type

The #7.5 shotshell is known for its versatility. The #7.5 shot is a medium-sized shot that combines the benefits of #7 and #8 shot, offering a balance between penetration and pattern density.

Grain

The #7.5 shot is typically used with 1.5 to 1.75 ounces of shot, which translates to approximately 24 to 27 grains of shot per 12-gauge shell. The total weight of the shot in each shell is critical for achieving the desired pattern and penetration.

Caliber

The 12-gauge shell is one of the most popular shotgun calibers, providing a balance between power and manageability. It is capable of handling a wide range of shot sizes and weights, making it versatile for various applications.

Velocity

The speed at which the shot leaves the shell is crucial for achieving the desired range and trajectory. The Fed Estate SS 12ga 2.75" #7.5 shotshell typically has a muzzle velocity in the range of 1,200 to 1,300 feet per second (fps). This velocity allows for a decent range and effective penetration for small game hunting and target shooting.

Bullet Drop

The bullet drop, or the distance the shot falls from its highest point, is directly influenced by the velocity and the weight of the shot. For a #7.5 shot at 1,200 to 1,300 fps, the bullet drop starts to become significant at around 30 to 40 yards. This means that at these distances, the shot begins to lose velocity and drop significantly, making it important to account for this in your trajectory calculations.

Pattern Density

The pattern density refers to the number of pellets that hit within a specific area. For a #7.5 shot, the pattern density is generally higher than for smaller shots, providing a more concentrated pattern. This makes it suitable for hunting small game where a tight pattern is desirable.

Shot Length

The shot length is another critical specification for shotgun shells. The 2.75" shot length ensures that the shotshell has a sufficient volume to contain the proper amount of shot and propellant, allowing for optimal performance.

Shot Weight

The shot weight, in combination with the shot size, determines the overall performance of the shotshell. The #7.5 shot typically weighs between 1.5 to 1.75 ounces, providing a balanced performance for various applications.
