The Hard-Hitting Waterfowl Load Built for Serious Hunters

CSG Member, Fiocchi of America, a leader in premium ammunition innovation, proudly introduces Arkansas Steel, the ultimate waterfowl hunting shotshell engineered for duck and goose hunters who demand uncompromising performance in the field.

The name pays homage to the storied waterfowling heritage of Arkansas and the famed Delta region — a place where world-class duck hunting traditions run deep. But while its roots honor the heart of the Mississippi Flyway, Arkansas Steel is lights-out no matter where you hunt. From the flooded timber of the Delta to the prairies of the Central Flyway or the coastal marshes of the Atlantic, this load is built to deliver results across the nation.

Designed to dominate the skies, Arkansas Steel’s 12-gauge, 3" shell delivers a 1-1/5 ounce payload of #2, #3, or #4 steel shot at a blistering 1,550 fps. The result is devastating impact, superior downrange energy, and clean, ethical kills — even in the toughest wetland conditions.

“Arkansas Steel is built for hunters who don’t settle for second best,” said Christian Hogg, Director of Marketing. “From flooded timber to open water, it’s engineered to cycle flawlessly, pattern tightly, and bring the kind of knockdown power that makes every shot count.”

Purpose-built for the grit and grind of waterfowl season, Arkansas Steel offers the perfect combination of pattern density, velocity, and reliability. And with its rugged 4-box field carton and sturdy carry handle, it’s as portable as it is powerful — ready to go wherever the hunt takes you.

Reliable. Packable. Purpose-built. Arkansas Steel is here — and it hits harder than ever.
