Estate Cartridge Super Sport Competition Target 12 Gauge ammunition (brand part no. SS12L18) gives clay shooters a dependable 2.75-inch shell built for the demands of trap, skeet, and sporting clays. Produced by Federal Ammunition under the Estate Cartridge label, this load pairs fine progressive-burning powder with magnum-grade, multi-screened shot for patterns that hold together at real clay-target distances. A biaxially-oriented plastic hull and brass-plated head keep primer seating uniform shot after shot, so scores reflect the shooter, not the ammunition. For competitors and casual clay busters alike, this is a target load built to run all day without a hiccup.
