Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What makes the Winchester AA Diamond Grade Elite Trap 20 Gauge ammunition special?

A: The Winchester AA Diamond Grade Elite Trap 20 Gauge ammunition is specially designed for trap shooting. It features a 2 3/4" shell length, 7/8 oz of #7.5 shot, and a muzzle velocity of 1300 fps. This combination provides excellent pattern density and breaking power for clay targets, making it ideal for competitive trap shooting and practice sessions.

Q: How many shells come in a box of this ammunition?

A: Each box of Winchester AA Diamond Grade Elite Trap 20 Gauge ammunition contains 25 shells. The case quantity is 10 boxes, for a total of 250 shells per case.

Q: Is this ammunition suitable for hunting?

A: While the Winchester AA Diamond Grade Elite Trap 20 Gauge ammunition is high-quality, it is specifically designed for clay target shooting, particularly trap. It is not recommended for hunting. The #7.5 shot size is generally too small for ethical hunting of game birds, and the load is optimized for breaking clay targets rather than taking down live game.

Q: What is the shot size used in this ammunition?

A: This Winchester AA Diamond Grade Elite Trap ammunition uses #7.5 shot. This shot size is ideal for breaking clay targets in trap shooting, providing a good balance of pattern density and breaking power at typical trap shooting distances.

Q: Can this ammunition be used in all 20 gauge shotguns?

A: This ammunition can be used in most modern 20 gauge shotguns that are in good condition. However, it's always important to check your shotgun's manual or consult with the manufacturer to ensure it can handle 2 3/4" shells and the 1300 fps velocity. Some older or lightweight 20 gauge shotguns may not be suitable for high-velocity loads.

Q: What is the recoil like with this ammunition?

A: The recoil of the Winchester AA Diamond Grade Elite Trap 20 Gauge ammunition is generally moderate. The 20 gauge platform combined with the 7/8 oz shot load typically produces less recoil than 12 gauge trap loads, making it a good choice for shooters who are recoil sensitive or for extended practice sessions. However, the high velocity of 1300 fps may increase felt recoil compared to standard velocity 20 gauge loads.
