Stars and Stripes 28 Gauge #9 Shot Target Shotshells, 25-Round Box

Stars and Stripes Target Load ammunition (model CT02809) chambers the 28 gauge, a lightweight sub-gauge favored by clays shooters who want low recoil without sacrificing a crisp break. A 3/4oz payload of fine #9 shot leaves the 2-3/4-inch hull at 1200 fps, giving a dense pattern well suited to close-range skeet and clays targets. The 28 gauge’s mild recoil makes it a favorite for extended practice sessions and shooters stepping down from a 20 or 12 gauge. Each box holds 25 rounds, the standard quantity for this specialty sub-gauge shell.
