Collection: Yellow Shotgun Shells

Yellow 20 Gauge Shotgun Shells

Yellow is the traditional color for 20 gauge shotgun shells — it's how shooters visually distinguish 20 gauge from 12 gauge in the field, so nearly everything in this collection is 20 gauge rather than the 12 gauge you'll find in most other colors here. We also carry yellow/gold bullet slices for jewelry work.

Popular Uses

Blank (no-marking) yellow hulls are popular for vintage-style wedding boutonnieres and rustic decor. Yellow is also associated with military support ("support our troops") and suicide prevention awareness — worth knowing if you're sourcing for an awareness event. And alongside military/hunting green, orange, and other earth tones, it works well in autumn and rustic-themed craft pairings.
