20 Gauge Ammo for Sale

20 gauge ammo is a popular shotgun choice for hunters and sport shooters who want lighter recoil than many 12 gauge loads while keeping strong field performance. At Star Gun Shop, this category helps buyers compare 20 gauge shotgun ammo by brand, shell length, shot size, payload, load type, round count, and current availability.

Common 20 gauge ammo options may include birdshot, buckshot, slugs, turkey loads, target loads, waterfowl loads, and TSS shells when available. Birdshot is often used for clay targets, upland birds, dove, and small game. Slugs and buckshot may be compared for specific field or lawful defensive applications, depending on firearm compatibility and local laws.

The best 20 gauge ammo depends on your shotgun, chamber length, choke, intended use, recoil preference, and hunting regulations. Always confirm whether your shotgun is marked for 2 3/4 inch or 3 inch shells before ordering.

Do not assume every 20 gauge shell is safe for every 20 gauge shotgun. Check the barrel marking, owner’s manual, and ammunition box before use.
