Federal Premium Black Cloud FS 12 Gauge 3.5 Inch ammunition delivers consistent performance through meticulously inspected primers that meet strict dimensional tolerances and charge weight standards.

The Black Cloud FS Steel round features Federal’s Flitecontrol Flex wad, engineered to improve pattern density and consistency when used through both ported and standard waterfowl chokes. The wad’s redesigned rear-deploying petals and side-mounted vents control payload separation from the wad at the optimal moment, resulting in dense, deadly patterns.
This 1.5oz load comprises 40 percent FLITESTOPPER steel pellets and 60 percent Premium steel, paired with a high-performance primer and clean-burning, temperature-stable propellant. The plated head and sealed crimp provide protection against moisture in extreme conditions. Each box contains 25 rounds of Number 3 shot, built to perform in demanding waterfowl hunting applications.
