The BP12 is our original patented 12ga magnum shotcup. It continues to be one of the most versatile and best choices available for many non-toxic and lead shot field loads. Combined with the BPGS gas seal as a 2-part system, the BP12 produces high-velocity loads with exceptionally dense patterning. The friction-reducing ribs and exterior wall reduce resistance as the shotcup travels down the bore, barrel, and choke. A tapered interior as well as side-cushioned walls reduces pellet chaos, thus leading to extended range capabilities and tighter patterns.
Designed and patented by Ballistic Products in the mid-1970s, the BP12 solves the ballistic enigma of integrating the ideal gas seal with friction-reducing shotcup. The materials used to manufacture the shotcup are optimized for the job of carrying long-range shot patterns. BPGS gas seals are stackable; we call these loads we call the Pagoda method, creating stable, super-high velocity shotgun loads. The unique BP12/BPGS combination has been proven in the field over the last 35 years, by shooters and writers, to be part of the best possible field loads. See for yourself the difference a true hunting wad makes in the field.
- Overall Length: 1.700"

- Slits: None - must be slit at least 4x, 3/4 length before loading
- Use with BPGS or X12X gas seals.
BP12-Tuff note:
The BP12-Tuff was discontinued due to the Multi-Metal capabilities of the BP12. The BP12 is molded our tungsten and steel resistant LL material, which will protect barrels like the former BP12-Tuff. Therefore, the modern BP12 wad may be used in any BP12-Tuff load data.
