Rio Ammunition WT2075 Wing & Target 20Gauge 2.75″ 7/8oz 7.5Shot 25 Per Box/10 Case

Target shooters and wing hunters across the South Bay—from Hayward to Sunnyvale—depend on ammunition that delivers consistent patterns without premium pricing. Rio's 20-gauge 2.75" load pairs light recoil with reliable shot placement, making it practical for clay courses and small-game work. Understanding your local shooting regulations matters; review California firearm laws before heading to the range.

20-Gauge Load Profile and Field Use

The 7/8-ounce payload with 7.5 shot delivers moderate velocity in a standard 2.75" hull, balancing recoil management with pattern density at typical hunting and sport-shooting distances. This load works well for upland birds, clay targets, and light waterfowl applications where heavy magnums aren't necessary. Shooters stocking ammunition for regular range visits or season work should consider the 25-round box format and cost-per-round efficiency.

Frequently asked questions

Is 7.5 shot suitable for both clay target shooting and hunting small game?

Yes. The 7.5 shot size produces dense patterns for clay breaking while remaining effective on upland birds and rabbits at typical shotgun ranges. Pattern density decreases beyond 30–35 yards, so distance matters for consistency.

How does the 7/8-ounce load compare to heavier 20-gauge options?

The 7/8-ounce charge reduces recoil and is gentler on shotgun actions over repeated shooting sessions. Heavier loads (1 ounce or more) deliver denser patterns but demand more from your shoulder and firearm cycling.
