Federal Top Gun Lite Ammunition 12 Gauge 2-3/4" 1-1/8 oz

Federal Top Gun Lite 12 gauge 2-3/4" ammunition is purpose-built for clay target shooters who want reliable, consistent patterns without breaking the bank. These loads pair hard lead shot with Federal's track record for dependability, making them a practical choice for trap, skeet, and sporting clays practice where you're shooting volume and need your ammo to perform the same way round after round.

The 1-1/8 oz payload delivers 394 pellets of No. 7.5 shot downrange at 1145 fps, a moderate velocity that's easy on your shoulder during long days at the range while still providing the energy needed to break clays cleanly. The eight-segment crimp and unique wad column design work together to produce the kind of even, predictable patterns that separate good clay shooting from frustrating flyers. Hard shot resists deformation in the barrel, which means tighter patterns and fewer of those "should-have-broken" targets.

Federal's reputation for consistent primers and quality control means you can trust these rounds to ignite reliably shot after shot. At 1-1/8 oz, Top Gun Lite sits in the sweet spot for clay shooters—it's not a magnum load, so it's gentle enough for high-volume practice without the recoil penalty of heavier charges. If you're loading up for a day at the trap house or putting in serious practice time before a competition, these rounds deliver the consistency that turns practice into skill.
