Frequently asked questions

What competition events are suited for number 8 shot loads?

Number 8 shot works well in trap and skeet competitions where target distances stay moderate and pattern density matters more than penetration. Clay target sports rely on these smaller pellets for tight shot grouping at 20-40 yard ranges.

Why choose 1 1/8 ounce payload over heavier loads?

The 1 1/8 ounce payload balances pattern density with recoil management, making it ideal for high-volume competition shooting where fatigue and follow-up accuracy affect your score.

How long is the California firearm waiting period?

California requires a 10-day waiting period from when DROS is submitted until you can take possession of the firearm. Looking for FFL dealer Cupertino? Visit us in Sunnyvale.
