Challenger Ammo First Class Trgt Ld 12Ga 2-3/4'' 1-1/8Oz #8 1200 Fps 250/Case

Challenger Ammo First Class target loads in 12 gauge 2-3/4" shells deliver the consistency and affordability clay shooters and range competitors rely on. Loaded with 1-1/8 ounces of #8 lead shot and clocked at 1200 feet per second, these rounds are engineered for tight, repeatable patterns that keep scores tight whether you're running pump guns, semi-autos, or over-unders on the trap or skeet field. A 250-round case means less frequent ammo runs and more trigger time per trip.

Challenger's First Class line balances economy with the precision target shooters demand. The high-antimony lead shot resists deformation through the barrel, promoting denser, more predictable patterns downrange. Clean-burning powder and consistent primers fire reliably across the board, so you focus on your technique, not worrying about hangfires or light loads. The fully reloadable plastic hulls let reloaders recover their brass and keep costs down over the long season—a smart move for anyone who shoots regularly.

Made in Canada to rigorous ballistic and quality-control standards, these shells punch above their weight for the money. Whether you're zeroing technique, prepping for a match, or just logging shotgun time at the range, First Class target loads offer the dependable performance you need without the premium price tag.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these 2-3/4" shells work in my shotgun?

These Challenger rounds are designed for 12 gauge shotguns chambered for 2-3/4" ammunition. Check your gun's chamber marking—if it says 2-3/4", 3", or 3-1/2", you're good to go. Never force a shell into a chamber; if it doesn't fit smoothly, do not use it.

Are these good for clay target shooting?

Yes. #8 shot and a 1-1/8 oz. payload at 1200 fps make these loads well-suited for trap, skeet, and sporting clays competition. The high-antimony lead shot and tight patterns are engineered specifically for target work.

Can I reload the hulls?

Yes. These shells come in fully reloadable plastic hulls, so reloaders can recover and repurpose them, reducing ammunition costs over time.
