I remember the first time I ever shot trap as a little boy. What the sport consisted of in my backyard was my father throwing old pipe tobacco can lids like Frisbees in front of me, which when struck would go PING and actually gain greater velocity. To this day I still hear the tinny PING in my head whenever I hit a clay, and I’m blessed to turn around after a good round and see my old dad smiling behind me. It wasn’t my practicing that finally made me a better shooter than him, but rather his glaucoma. He still does alright — never make the mistake of being a opossum on his property.
This 12 Gauge shell from Fiocchi is perfect for shooting trap or skeet courtesy of its 7/8 ounces of 9 lead shot. With over 500 pellets flying forth at a very high muzzle velocity of 1,350 fps, you’ll have just the spread you need to transform fast-moving clays into shards with ease. The chilled shot is hard enough to keep its spherical shape as it passes through the barrel, and it patterns remarkably consistently thanks to this shell’s well-designed wad. This shell’s primer, hull, and propellant all exhibit their Italy-based manufacturer’s characteristic reverence for superior quality, and will lend themselves to great shooting wherever you practice it.
