If you reload shotshells for clay target competition, the Federal Premium Podium 12 Gauge 1-1/8 oz shotshell wads are engineered to deliver the consistency and pattern control that separate winners from the rest of the field. These wads are the reloading component version of the same design Federal uses in its High Over All competition target loads—the kind trusted by serious clay shooters who demand reliable, repeatable performance shot after shot.
The Podium wad's cylinder-shaped compression zone is the heart of its design. That cushioning zone protects your payload at ignition, minimizing deformation so shot stays tight in the pattern and flyers stay out of your scorecard. Whether you're working through a box at the trap range or dialing in loads for a registered event, consistency matters, and this wad delivers it.
Versatility is built in too. The Podium's profile loads cleanly in all tapered hulls, including Federal Premium High Over All, Remington STS Uni-body, and Winchester AA casings—giving you flexibility if you're working with hulls from different manufacturers or building loads to match what you have on hand. That soft-shooting character means you can push performance without beating up your shoulder, which adds up over a long day at the range.
These are the same wads that top clay shooters use, now available by the component so you can build loads dialed to your gun and your game. If you're serious about reloading for 12-gauge competition, the Podium wad deserves a place in your reloading bench.
