The Baschieri & Pellagri Competition One Steel Shot 12 Gauge shotshells are designed for clay shooting where lead ammunition is prohibited. These environmentally friendly shells feature 2 3/4" length and deliver a 1 1/8 oz payload of #7.5 steel shot at a high velocity of 1280 fps. Utilizing Gordon Technology with a unique double shock absorber, these shells minimize felt recoil for increased comfort and faster follow-up shots. The higher velocity compared to lead options increases the dynamic load of each shot for greater clay-breaking power, making them an excellent choice for competitive shooters looking for performance without compromising environmental standards.
