<p>Rio Heavy Field Shotshells load a full 1-1/8 ounce of 7.5 lead shot into a 16-gauge 2-3/4 inch plastic hull. Rio built this round for the upland and small game hunter who wants a serious payload behind every shot. Pushed to 1300 fps that heavy charge puts more pellets on target. It delivers the dense even patterns that turn fast-flushing birds and quick small game into clean hits at practical field ranges.</p><p>The 16 gauge sits between the 12 and the 20 in both recoil and pattern density and this load plays straight to its strengths. A 1-1/8 ounce charge of 7.5 shot is a classic upland recipe. It runs heavy enough to fill a pattern for upland birds and rabbits yet works well in a lighter 16-gauge shotgun across long walks. The 2-3/4 dram equivalent keeps recoil steady and predictable so you get back on target for a quick follow-up.</p><p>Rio builds its Heavy Field line as dedicated sub-gauge game loads offered in 16 gauge 28 gauge and .410 bore. This is the 16-gauge 7.5 version tuned for feathered and furred small game where a tight pattern matters most. This 2-3/4-inch load is intended for 16-gauge shotguns with a compatible chamber. The plastic hull is suited to common pump semi-auto over/under and side-by-side platforms. The 7.5 lead shot bridges upland birds and small game giving you enough pellet count for reliable coverage without stepping down to a finer dove size.</p><p>Product Specifications</p><ul> <li>Brand: Rio</li> <li>Line: Heavy Field</li> <li>Gauge: 16 gauge</li> <li>Shell length: 2-3/4 inches</li> <li>Dram equivalent: 2-3/4 dram</li> <li>Shot payload: 1-1/8 oz</li> <li>Shot size: 7.5</li> <li>Shot material: lead</li> <li>Muzzle velocity: 1300 fps</li> <li>Hull material: plastic</li> <li>Rounds per box: 25</li> <li>Boxes per case: 10 (250 rounds per case)</li> <li>Manufacturer part : RCHV1675</li> <li>SKU: RORCHV1675</li> <li>UPC: 8435101602334</li></ul><p>For the 16-gauge hunter who refuses to be under-gunned in the uplands Rio Heavy Field 7.5 is a straightforward small game load.
