Challenger First Class Target Load (part no. CTA12L18) is a 12 gauge clay-target shell carrying a 1 ounce payload of #8 shot at 1200 feet per second in the standard 2.75-inch hull. Challenger Ammo markets this loading as a dedicated target load rather than a hunting shell, giving trap and skeet shooters a lighter-payload option for reduced recoil over a long day. This listing ships as a full 250-round case, a genuinely bulk quantity for high-volume clay shooting.
