Shotshell customers can custom order a variety of loads, including 10 gauge and 28 gauge. Shotshells with unique payload sizes are loaded in 2 3/4-inch hulls for reduced recoil are also possible. Many ammunition options exist at Federal's Custom Shop that will appeal to customer personal preferences. And the long list will change as the shop grows.

If it's not in Federal's vast catalog as factory-loaded ammo, we may have it listed on our website as a load that we will custom handload for you. We now have a specific selection of rifle and TSS shotshell loads that we will build on-demand, per order, Federal Ammunition President Jason Vanderbrink said. For example, Barnes 120-grain Tipped TSX in 6.5-284 Norma and 28-gauge TSS turkey loads aren't products we list in our catalog, but you can certainly order them through our Custom Shop.

According to the company, each round is handloaded to order by engineers in their state-of-the-art reloading workshop. These veteran craftsmen combine the best components with extra quality checks at every stage for the most consistent velocity, accuracy and overall performance. Loads are then hand-checked for final inspection and cleaned before being custom-packed in durable packaging signed by the engineer who handloaded it.

How to Order

Made in the U.S.A., the Custom Shop handloading facility is located in a specialized room at Federal's main factory in Anoka, Minnesota. The Custom Shop is not open to the public. It's an online, direct-to-consumer shop only. Detailed information including how to order, what specific loads and options are available, shipping details, and more can be found by visiting Federal and clicking on Custom Shop.
