The Best Shells For Shooting Sporting Clays



shoot doves

Sporting clay shooting is fun, but you need the best equipment. In this article, we'll talk about the Federal engineered High Over All, Winchester AA Super Sport, and Gordon clay shooting shells. There are many sporting clays available. Be sure to research each one for the purpose you intend. We also highlight the pros and cons of each.

Clay shooting shells with high velocity

Although there are some advantages to using clay shooting shells with high velocity clay, there are also some drawbacks. These shells are more recoil-sensitive, which can make aiming difficult. Second, if the target is launched at a shallow angle, it can be more difficult to collimate on. These drawbacks can be overcome by high velocity clay shooting shells.

A shotshell with the ability to destroy sporting clays can be called a "competitive Edge". COMPETITIVE ADVANCE is a blend of high-tech components as well as state-ofthe-art technology. This shotshell can achieve a high rate of recoil. The shell is extremely accurate and results in better scores. This shotshell is great for people who have limited range.

Gordon clay shells for shooting

Gordon introduced the revolutionary hull ammunitions in 1990. These have been well-received by hunters as well as shooters. A shock-absorbing base wad seals the bottom shell casing of the Gordon hull and anchors it to the end plug tube. The wadding acts as the primer seating. The Gordon hull's solid structure absorbs any recoil. This results in a flat shot pattern and greater penetration.


The Sporting 100 was initially introduced to replace the Pro Sport. It has since evolved into the Graphite version and is fully optimised for mid-range clay loads. Eley Superb shotshells were once only available in plastic wad, but now also come in fibre wads. These shells offer an excellent range of shot sizes, and are great for competition work. They're also not cheap.

Winchester AA Super Sport

Winchester AA Super Sport shells for shooting sporting clays are specifically designed for busting clay birds at longer ranges. These shells can carry heavier loads and contain more powder. AA Target loads have high-quality components and are loaded with copper-plated shot to increase pattern performance and reduce deformation. These loads are ideal for hunting clay birds and upland game at greater distances.

The Winchester AA target shotshells are the benchmark for accuracy, consistency, and performance. Because they shoot consistent loads shell after shell, they are the best choice for trap, sporting and skeet shooting. The 1-1/8-ounce shot of AA shotshells makes them ideal for high-volume shooting. Winchester AA shotshells are 100% lead-free, unlike other brands' lead-free cartridges.

Federal engineered High Over All

Federal's High Over All shells provide the highest level of performance and consistency. These shells include one-eighth ton of #7.5 allsteel shots and have a special wad column. High Over All shotshells are consistent in pattern density and provide reliable downrange accuracy. These shells offer exceptional value and consistent performance, regardless of whether you shoot sporting clays at a low-volume or lead-free range.

Federal's Premium high-overall shotshells are made to ensure consistent target shooting performance. Federal's HOA was developed with top shooters as a goal. It produces consistent patterns thanks to its high-antimony lead payload, and unique Podium wad. It has a solid brass head, and a tapered, one-piece hull.
