Description
The Winchester Defender line represents Winchester’s most comprehensive threat-stopping shotshell offering, purpose-built for personal defense in defensive shotguns. This 12 Gauge load runs at 2.75″ and is packed with nine copper-plated 00 buck pellets per shell, delivering massive stopping shock with manageable recoil at the indoor and outdoor engagement distances most home-defense encounters demand.
The copper-plated lead shot resists pellet deformation during magazine feeding and helps maintain a denser, more uniform pattern downrange. A buffered shot column keeps the nine pellets separated through the bore so they arrive on target as nine individual projectiles rather than a deformed clump. Out of the muzzle, the load clocks 1145 fps, putting serious energy on target.
Each box holds 10 rounds, and a full case comes with 10 boxes (100 rounds). This is current-production Winchester ammunition, ideal for stocking a bedside defensive shotgun, running patterning practice, or keeping a steady supply of hard-hitting buckshot for the home-defense shotgun.
Your purchase options:
- Box – 10 Rounds
- Case – 100 Rounds (10 Boxes)
