Winchester 410 steel ammo in the Xpert Game and Target line gives you a compliant, hard-hitting load for waterfowl, upland birds, and small game on public land or regulated zones. The Winchester Xpert shotshell is a 3-inch 410 Bore shell loaded with 3/8-ounce of #6 steel shot, clocking 1400 feet per second at the muzzle. Thicker wad segments protect your barrel from steel pellet contact, and the non-corrosive Boxer primer seats in a reloadable hull with a 6-point star crimp. For dove fields, rabbit runs, or preserve hunts where lead is off the table, this is your 410 steel ammo.
Built for the Box
Winchester seats #6 steel shot in a 3-inch hull designed for smooth-bore barrels — no rifled choke required. At 1400 fps, the 3/8-ounce payload delivers adequate downrange energy for dove and quail inside 25 yards, with patterns that tighten through improved cylinder or modified chokes. The thicker wad segments reduce barrel wear from the harder steel pellets, extending the life of fixed-choke guns and interchangeable tubes alike. Each box holds 25 rounds; shipping weight is 1.015 pounds, and DOT regulation applies — ground transport only.

Safe Handling & Compliance
Federal law requires purchasers to be at least 18 years old for rifle and shotgun ammunition, and at least 21 for handgun ammunition. Ammunition cannot be shipped to certain states, counties, and cities — review our ammunition shipping restrictions before ordering. Store ammunition in a cool, dry location away from heat sources and out of reach of unauthorized users.
- Always follow the four universal firearm safety rules: treat every gun as loaded, never point at anything you are not willing to destroy, keep your finger off the trigger until ready to fire, and be certain of your target and what lies beyond it.
- Verify that your shotgun is chambered for 3-inch shells and rated for steel shot before loading this ammunition. Consult your owner’s manual for choke compatibility with steel pellets.
- Non-toxic steel shot is required in many waterfowl zones and public hunting areas — confirm current federal, state, and local regulations before your hunt.
