20 Gauge Ammo
The 20 gauge shotgun is a favorite of many shooters due its excellent handling and (in guns of similar weight) much lower felt recoil compared to the 12 gauge. 20 gauge ammo shotgun can be used for everything from hunting and trap shooting to self-defense. 20 gauge shotshells have a distinctive yellow hull to help prevent accidental (and dangerous) loading of shells into the wrong size shotgun.
A 20 gauge shotshell typically fires an ounce (give or take 1/8 oz.) of shot at 1,200 feet per second, with steel waterfowl loads typically moving faster. Buckshot loads in 20ga are typically for self-defense, though they may be used for hunting as well. Slugs make the 20 gauge a viable deer gun at 100 yards and beyond, while birdshot is used for target shooting and, of course, birds.
Some 20 gauge loads (particularly waterfowl ones) come in a 3" hull length that packs more shot or propellant into the shell; this produces more recoil, but allows the 20ga to close the power gap with its larger cousins without the need for another shotgun when needed.
At Widener's, you'll find cheap 20 gauge ammo for sale from the biggest names in ammo. Look for Federal, Fiocchi, Winchester and more in-stock at very competitive prices.

Rio Game Load 20 Gauge 2-3/4" #1 Buck - 25 Rounds
$25.75Manufacturer Rio Ammunition Condition New Bullet Weight Not Applicable Bullet Type #1 Buck Use Type hunting or defending your home Quantity 25 Ammo Caliber 20 Gauge Manufacturer SKU RB209 Shot Material Lead Shell Length 2-3/4" Magnetic No UPC Barcode 8435101625029 Cost Per Round $1.03 per round 20 Gauge shotguns deliver an excellent balance of power and recoil and are used for both sporting and self-defense purposes. This buckshot load from Rio Royal is designed mainly for game hunting, but can work in a home defense role as well.
Each 2-3/4" shell in this box of 25 fires nine pellets of #1 buckshot at a muzzle velocity of 1,330 feet per second. This is a relatively powerful load that produces considerable felt recoil in lighter shotguns. #1 buckshot is slightly smaller than 00 buck, but works very well for hunting and personal protection and reduces the risk of overpenetration; this latter property is a significant consideration for defensive use in populated areas. Do note that this box might call its shot "three-by-three," which simply refers to how #1 buck stacks in a column when loaded in a 20 Gauge shell.
Rio Royal is a Spanish shotshell manufacturer with production facilities in both the USA and Spain. Their products are well-liked for their solid performance and reasonable price.

Remington Premier TSS 20 Gauge 1-1/2 oz. #7 – 5 Rounds
$48.85Manufacturer Remington Condition New Bullet Weight 1-1/2 oz. Bullet Type #7 Shot Use Type turkey hunting Quantity 5 Ammo Caliber 20 Gauge Manufacturer SKU TSS2037 Shot Material Tungsten Shell Length 3" UPC Barcode 047700530703 Cost Per Round $9.77 per round Turkey. It’s not North America’s most dangerous game, but it can still be very hard to kill without the right kind of ammunition. And this Remington Premier TSS 20 Gauge shotshell, right here? It’s the right kind of ammunition.
This 3” long shell’s #7 shot pellets are made of a special tungsten alloy. Tungsten Super Shot, or TSS, boasts a density that is 56% greater than lead’s, so it retains vastly more energy and hits significantly harder over much greater distances. TSS’s inherently superior density gives you the option of firing much smaller pellets than you would normally choose for turkey hunting. That means more pellets on target to inflict a decisive death blow, and TSS keeps on penetrating until the job is done.
This round’s cloud of #7 TSS maintains a tight flight formation thanks not just to the pellets’ heightened hardness, but also Remington’s premium wad. These rounds’ 1,100 fps muzzle velocity doesn’t generate too much recoil, and their first-rate primers and powder always light up to predictable effect.
