WIN SPR-TRGT 12GA 2-3/4″ #8 25/250

Target shooting demands ammunition built around consistency rather than raw power. Winchester's Super Target line delivers 1-ounce loads of #8 shot in 2-3/4" cases, engineered for clay work and sport shooting where predictable patterns matter more than velocity spikes. Whether you're shooting in Vallejo or anywhere across Northern California, understanding local regulations is essential—review California firearm laws before your range session.

Shot size and load construction

The #8 shot pellet sits in that middle ground where pattern density increases without sacrificing effective range for typical target distances. At 1 ounce per load, you're looking at roughly 410 pellets per round—dense enough to break clay targets cleanly at 20-40 yards. These 2-3/4" shells feed reliably through most autoloaders and pumps. TacticCAL stocks ammunition for shooters navigating California's regulatory landscape; if you're exploring firearm options, we also specialize in PC §32100 exempt revolvers and other legal choices.
