Overview
Built for training and practice, this 12 gauge load is aimed at shooters who want a consistent cartridge for refining their form and timing. The 2-3/4" shell with #8 shot and 7/8 oz payload is suited to general competition and range work where a lighter shooting feel can matter during extended sessions. Baschieri & Pellagri’s Gordon Technology is included to help reduce felt recoil, which may make repetitive drills more manageable. Offered in a 250-round case, it fits the needs of serious shooters who want to stock up for regular practice.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed as a training cartridge, so it is not positioned as a dedicated hunting load for larger game or longer-range field use.
- #8 shot is a fine pellet size, which makes this load more specialized for practice and target work than for heavier-duty applications.
- The 2-3/4" shell length and 7/8 oz payload may not match every shotgun setup or training preference, so compatibility and intended use should be checked before purchase.
- Gordon Technology is described as helping reduce felt recoil, but the amount of recoil reduction will depend on the shooter and firearm setup.
