5 Rounds of #4 Buck 12ga Ammo by Rio Royal Buck

Rio ammunition can trace its roots all the way back to 1896, and the company is known for many things including quality, performance, and a focus on safety. The factory itself is set in the mountains outside the small village of Galdacano, and the only thing around it for miles is a lot of trees and wildlife. You see, Rio is a firm believer in the importance of safety, and since the company works with explosives on a daily basis in their production of ammunition they feel it’s important to keep the factory far away from civilization. Their attention to safety is certainly admirable, and they treat quality with the same single-minded focus.

This Rio ammunition is meant for your 12-gauge shotgun. Each round is 2 ¾” in length and filled with 21 pellets of #4 buckshot. Care is taken to create uniform pellets; they’re made using a die-press machine and designed to retain their shape after being fired. Each round bursts from the barrel of your shotgun with the impressive muzzle velocity of 1345 feet per second and strikes targets with stunning force. #4 buckshot is often used for home defense because it has a devastating effect on human targets up close without having the kind of over-penetration of larger 00 buck pellets, which can easily blow through wall, striking innocent bystanders. It can also be used for hunting small-to-medium-sized game. This ammunition can be used for those reasons and also for target practice.

There are 5 rounds in this single box of ammunition, making this box just the right size for tucking in your vest or pant-leg pocket when you head out on a hunt or to your favorite outdoor spot for target practice. Of course, it is just 5 rounds, so you might want to buy more than one box to get more extensive trigger time. This ammunition is manufactured by Rio at their plant near Galdacano, Spain. All ammunition goes through rigorous testing and must pass strict quality control measures. Your shotgun is hungry; feed it.
