250rds – 12 Gauge Rio Wing & Target 2-3/4" 1oz. #8 Shot Ammo Details

You’re a bit of a renaissance man (or renaissance lady). You like to dabble in a little bit of everything, and those pursuits very much include upland game hunting and one or more forms of clay shooting.

So what do you do? Order multiple types of ammo? If you want to, go right on ahead – but you might just find your life becoming a skosh simpler when you stock up on Rio’s Texas-made Wing & Target series 12 Gauge ammunition instead.

This is a 3 dram equivalent shell: the product of its 1 ounce shot column and 1,250 fps muzzle velocity. That’s a lighter load than competitive target shooting allows, but #8 shot is small. You’re still launching over 400 pellets each time you drop the pin. And by keeping the shot light, Rio gives you a fast and flat trajectory without burdening you with heavy recoil in exchange.

Rio is a subsidiary of one of the world’s biggest manufacturers of explosives (a forward-thinking branch of technology, which banned smoking indoors long before the health risks of tobacco were widely understood). Their powders and primers are all best in class!
