Winchester Ammo XSV1234 Drylok Super Steel Magnum 12Gauge 3″ 1 1/4oz 4Shot 25 Per Box/10 Case

Steel shot loads deliver proven waterfowl performance when your hunting plan demands non-toxic ammunition. Winchester's Drylok Super Steel Magnum rounds pack 1 1/4 ounces of number 4 shot into a 3-inch 12-gauge hull, engineered for hard-hitting velocity across coastal and inland marshes. Before your next hunt, review California firearm laws to confirm shot type regulations in your area—rules vary by region and season.

Steel shot velocity and pattern density

The XSV1234 combines high-velocity steel pellets with a 3-inch magnum case for extended effective range. Number 4 shot strikes a balance between pattern density and penetration, making this load suitable for decoying waterfowl at moderate distances. Each box contains 25 rounds, with 10 boxes per case for frequent hunters. Steel doesn't pattern identically to lead, so patterning your shotgun before the season matters.
