Browning Wicked Wing XD 12 Gauge Ammunition 3" 1 1/4oz #BB Plated Steel Shot - B193411230
The Browning Wicked Wing XD 12-gauge 3" 1¼ oz #BB load is engineered for waterfowlers who demand maximum range, tight patterns, and reliable function in the harshest conditions. Built from precision-formed, plated steel pellets, this shell uses the roundest, smoothest, and most uniform shot available to extend effective reach on high-flying birds. Treated for corrosion resistance and tuned for high-velocity performance, Wicked Wing XD combines plated steel shot with Browning’s Wicked Wad to produce consistent shot release and dense patterns through a variety of choke designs. Rated at 1,450 fps, this 12 gauge ammo gives hunters the extra distance and dependable terminal energy they need.
Features and Specifications:
- Performance Metrics: A 1¼ oz #BB plated steel payload is balanced for high-velocity performance and extended downrange energy, rated at 1,450 fps to reduce lead time and improve on-bird hits.
- Treated Plated Steel Shot: Precision-formed, plated steel pellets resist corrosion and retain aerodynamic shape, promoting tighter, more consistent patterns after repeated wet-field exposure.
- Wicked Wad System: Browning’s Wicked Wad ensures uniform shot column release across choke types, stabilizing the payload and increasing pellet efficiency for denser patterns.
- High-Velocity Ballistics: The load’s propellant and charge are tuned to maximize pellet momentum and minimize pellet drop for confident shots on distant targets.
- Built for Wet Conditions: Corrosion-resistant components and plated shot help maintain consistent patterning and ignition in rain, fog, or icy conditions.
- Packaging Options: Sold in 25-round boxes and 250-round cases. Bulk case purchases include free shipping through Target Sports USA.
