Depends on the gauge of the shell. The smaller the number, the bigger the shell. A 12 g shell is ABOUT 3/4 of an inch in diameter.
A standard 12-gauge shotgun shell is typically loaded with either 7.5 or 8 shot, which refers to the size of the pellets. In a standard 12-gauge shell, there can be approximately 1 ounce of shot, containing around 300 to 400 individual pellets, depending on the specific size and type of shot used. Therefore, when referring to "pallets," it seems there might be some confusion, as "pallet" is not a term typically associated with shotgun ammunition. If you meant "pellets," the answer would be around 300 to 400 pellets per shell.
A 12-gauge shotgun shell typically contains multiple pellets, which are small, round projectiles inside the shell. The number of pellets in a 12-gauge 3" shell can vary depending on the specific type of shot being used, such as birdshot or buckshot. As a general guideline, a standard 12-gauge 3" shell with birdshot may contain around 1-1/8 to 1-1/4 ounces of shot, which can translate to roughly 200 to 300 pellets. For buckshot, there are typically fewer but larger pellets, with a 12-gauge 3" shell commonly holding around 8 to 15 pellets.
In a 20-gauge birdshot shell, the amount of shot typically ranges from 7/8 ounce to 1 ounce, depending on the specific load. This translates to approximately 24 to 28 grams of shot per shell. The shot consists of small lead or steel pellets, commonly used for bird hunting. Always check the specific shell packaging for precise details, as variations exist.
The best shotgun shell for shooting ducks is a 3 to 3 1/2 inch 12 gauge with number 2 shot.
It depends on the gauge and length of the shell, but common 12 gauge shells have between 25-45 grains of powder in.That range is determined by the wt. of shot/slug and the speed you want to shoot.In other word do you want to shoot trap at 1100 with 7/8Oz. shot or a goose upward of 1300fps with 1 1/4 Oz of shot.
Depends on the size of the shot, whether the shot is lead, steel or something else, the weight of the load and the gauge of the shell. A lead 1 oz load of #6 birdshot is about 225 pellets.
OO Buck contains nine .32 sized lead balls.
A 7.5 shot in a 12-gauge shell typically contains around 400 to 450 pellets. The exact number can vary slightly depending on the specific load and manufacturer, but generally, this is the standard range for that size shot. The pellets are relatively small, measuring about 0.095 inches in diameter.
2 3/4" #8 or 9 shot target loads. 1 or 1 1/8 0z. of shot.
