Challenger Ammo Long Bird 12 Gauge 2-3/4'' 1-1/8Oz #7.5 Shot 250/Case

Challenger Ammo Long Bird 12 gauge 2-3/4" shotgun ammunition is built for shooters who run high volumes through trap, skeet, and sporting clays courses without flinching at cost or downtime. This 250-round case loads 1-1/8 oz. of #7.5 lead shot in a standard 2-3/4" shell—the classic field load for consistent performance across light hunting, clay games, and range work. Whether you're breaking in a new gun, training for competition, or stocking the cabinet for the season, Long Bird delivers the ballistic repeatability and reliable ignition that serious shooters depend on.

Challenger engineered these shells with extra-hard, high-antimony lead shot that holds together through the air, generating dense, predictable patterns without the flyers that waste rounds and frustrate trigger time. The powder burn is clean and slow, which means less fouling buildup in your action and fewer stoppages—a real benefit when you're cycling dozens of shells an hour. One-piece plastic wads keep shot control tight and consistent, and the sure-fire primers fire every time, even under the pace and pressure of match day.

The plastic hulls are fully reloadable, so if you reload, you're getting extra value and reducing your long-term ammunition footprint. Made in Canada under rigorous ballistic testing and quality control, Long Bird ammo is the kind of workhorse load that gets ordered by the case because it works, costs less than premium loads, and never leaves you stranded at the line.
