Federal Black Cloud FS 20 Gauge 3" 1oz #3 Shot 25 Rd - Box or Case

The Federal Black Cloud FS in 20 Gauge is a premium 3" waterfowl shotshell built around Federal's signature two-pellet blend. Each hull carries a 1 oz payload of steel shot at a published muzzle velocity of 1350 fps, delivering the pattern density and downrange energy serious waterfowl hunters demand in a 20-gauge platform.

What sets Black Cloud FS apart is the engineered shot mix. The load pairs 60% Premium steel pellets for deep penetration with 40% FLITESTOPPER steel pellets that are designed to fragment on impact, creating a wider wound channel at longer ranges. The #3 shot size is well suited to mid-size ducks and other waterfowl, giving hunters a hard-hitting payload that won't break down on tough birds.

Internally, the shell is built around Federal's FliteControl FLEX wad for tight, consistent patterns and reduced pellet deformation, with a Catalyst lead-free primer for reliable ignition in cold and wet weather. The head features a black, nickel-plated brass base for smooth feeding in semi-autos and corrosion resistance in damp field conditions, finished with a sealed crimp to keep the powder and shot dry between the truck and the blind.

Whether you're running a 20-gauge semi-auto through a timber hole, working a pass shoot over decoys, or chasing ducks on a late-season push, the Black Cloud FS puts a high-velocity, pattern-tight steel load in your hands without forcing you to step up to a 12 gauge. The 3" magnum length pushes that 1 oz payload with authority, and the 25-round box keeps you shooting longer between reloads.
