Winchester Ammunition dropped a brand new ammo line especially crafted for waterfowl hunters. The new Winchester Final Pass shotshells feature a custom blend of plated precision steel shot, with shot sizes carefully crafted for hardcore waterfowl hunters.
Available in 12- and 20-gauge in boxes of 25 rounds, Final Pass shells contain a custom blend of #2 1/2 and #4 steel shot that has 30% more pellets than a full #2 shot payload. For heavier waterfowl like geese, Final Pass is available in a blend of #1 1/2 and #BB steel shot that has 25% more pellets than a full BB shot payload.
“Blended steel loads are extremely effective for waterfowl and provide an excellent combination of performance and affordability,” said Kyle Masinelli, Senior Director of Product Innovation and Strategy for Winchester. “The plated precision steel shot blended with custom half shot sizes makes Final Pass a versatile shotshell that waterfowl hunters can run all season whether chasing early season teal or late season geese.”
