250 Rounds of 7/8 ounce #8 shot 20ga Ammo by Fiocchi Heavy

If you’re considering taking up skeet or trap shooting keep a few things in mind for a more successful time. Something that surprises some shotgun shooters is that mastering mounting their shotgun to their shoulder matters quite a bit. Practicing in front of a mirror with a safely unloaded gun is a good idea and something many pros do. You should mount the shotgun to your cheek first and then lower it to your shoulder, keeping your cheek firmly glued to the stock. Also make sure you practice good follow-through by not lifting your head from the gun when you squeeze the trigger.

Another important part of skeet and trap shooting is loading your shotgun with the right ammunition. These particular rounds are manufactured for your 20-gauge shotgun by Fiocchi Munizioni. Each shotshell measures 2 ¾” in length. It’s important you know what length or lengths your shotgun is chambered for since attempting to use the wrong length shotshell can have disastrous results for both you and your gun. These shotshells contain a 7/8 ounce load which provides the power necessary to propel pellets towards targets with destructive energy. Each shotshell is filled with #8 shot. This is Fiocchi VIP Target ammo and is meant for target shooting such as shattering clays.

When you order this box of ammunition from Fiocchi you get 250 rounds. That’s enough ammunition to keep your shotgun fed for some time and plenty to get you started shattering clays. Never underestimate the importance of target practice; even shooting stationary targets will help you out on the skeet course. Each of these rounds produces a muzzle velocity of 1250 feet per second. Fiocchi’s headquarters are located in Lecco, Italy but they have a factory in Ozark, Missouri for U.S. sales. Order now to keep your 20-gauge shotgun warm and well-fed with Fiocchi.
