250 Rounds of 1-3/16 ounce #4 shot 12ga Ammo by BioAmmo

Hunting upland game with a shotgun used to go hand-in-hand with littering. You can be diligent and pick up every single empty hull that your shotgun spits out, but you can’t do the same for your wads. (You’d need a crystal ball to figure out where they wind up.) But thanks to BioAmmo, you can now hunt to your heart’s content without leaving behind a single scrap of plastic.

How? The answer is biopolymer, a AAA patented vegetable material which is 100% bio-compostable. When this 12 Gauge shotshell’s tube and wad land on the ground they will both vanish in about two years’ time, having been converted into nontoxic salt, water and carbon dioxide. You may still want to pick up BioAmmo’s hulls, but their brown wads won’t remain an eyesore until they have broken down.

BioAmmo’s wad is still high-performance in spite of being compostable. Its wide side slits enable it to produce petals in-flight, which ensures efficient separation from the shot column, as well as a recoil-reducing compressible base. This shell’s #4 lead shot gives you the option of hunting for turkey and other larger birds, and its tight pattern will give you an edge regardless of which game you’re after.
