About #4 Buckshot Ammunition

These loadings feature approximately twenty-seven .24-inch diameter lead pellets per shell in 12-gauge configurations. The pellets are smaller than larger buckshot sizes like #1 or 00 but considerably larger than birdshot, providing high pellet count while maintaining moderate individual pellet energy. This size offers significantly more projectiles than larger buckshot while still delivering adequate penetration for defensive applications. These types of loadings are well-suited for home defense and close-range applications where maximum pellet count and controlled penetration are desired for improved hit probability with reduced risk of over-penetration.

These cartridges feature distinct rims and are of a cylindrical, straight-walled nature. These shells usually feature some form of crimping or sealing to contain the payload they carry. Some loadings such as birdshot and buckshot feature substantial crimping shells while some feature caps or minimal, rolled crimping to contain something like a slug. 12 gauge ammunition can be found in various styles and forms, often tailored towards specific use cases.
