Challenger Ammo First Class Target Ld 12Ga 2-3/4'' 1Oz #7.5 1290Fps 250/Case

Challenger Ammo First Class Target is a 12-gauge shotgun shell designed for shooters who want reliable, consistent performance at the clay range or in the field. Loaded with a 1-ounce shot charge of #7.5 lead at 1290 fps, these 2-3/4" shells deliver the kind of ballistic consistency that matters when you're working through box after box. Built on a reloadable plastic hull, they offer economy-minded shooters the option to reload and shoot again, making them a smart choice for frequent users who want to keep costs down without sacrificing quality.

What sets Challenger apart is their commitment to quality control across every component. Their ballistic testing uses modern chronograph systems and pressure transducers to ensure velocities and pressures stay consistent shell to shell. The result is predictable performance—minimal shot deformation, clean patterns, and less recoil than you might expect. The one-piece plastic wad and hard antimony lead shot work together to maintain pattern density and penetration, whether you're breaking clays or hunting upland birds.

Each case ships with 250 rounds, giving you plenty to practice with or stock for the season. If you shoot shotgun regularly and want ammunition that performs the same way every time without breaking the bank, Challenger's First Class Target line is worth your attention.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is #7.5 shot best used for?

#7.5 shot is a versatile choice for clay target shooting and upland bird hunting. The smaller pellet size delivers denser patterns suitable for targets and smaller game at typical hunting ranges.

Are these shells reloadable?

Yes. Challenger Ammo First Class Target loads use a reloadable plastic hull, which allows shooters to reload the empties rather than discard them—a significant advantage if you shoot frequently and want to reduce ammunition costs over time.

How much recoil should I expect?

These shells are loaded to produce light recoil compared to heavier magnum loads, making them comfortable for extended shooting sessions at the range or in the field.

What's included in a 250-case purchase?

A case contains 250 ready-to-shoot 12-gauge 2-3/4" shells, each loaded with 1 ounce of #7.5 lead shot.
