The Rio Star Team Evo Training Light 12 Gauge 2.75in #8 Shot (part no. STT24LT8) is built for shooters who want to sharpen their edge before the big event, in a lighter-shooting version of Rio’s Star Team Evo training line. Rio drops the muzzle velocity to 1,200 feet per second, noticeably softer than the standard 1,340-fps Training load, for shooters who want to log high round counts with less felt recoil. It’s designed as a very economical and efficient training cartridge rather than a premium competition shell.
