Product Overview
Kent Elite Low Recoil-Training is a 7/8 oz, 2 3/4-inch 12-gauge target load made for new shooters, youth and anyone logging more range time without fatigue. Kent loads hard polished lead #8 at 1,200 fps. The 7/8 oz charge puts it on the light rung of the target ladder, an eighth of an ounce under the 1 oz loads and a quarter under a standard trap load.
That charge works out to about 359 pellets of #8. Free recoil is about 14 ft-lbs in a 7.5 lb gun. Light target loads are the ones some gas semi-autos short-stroke, though Kent claims this one runs in pumps and semi-autos alike.
If you're cross-shopping, Federal Top Gun Target Load carries the same 7/8 oz of #8 at the same speed. Fiocchi Shooting Dynamics loads that charge 150 fps faster, which is about 4 ft-lbs more recoil in the same gun.
- Inside the ATA 16-yard limits at 7/8 oz and 1,200 fps, where the rules allow this payload as fast as 1,350 fps
- About 3 ft-lbs less recoil than the 1 oz #8 target loads compared, the Remington Premier STS and the Winchester Super Target Xtra-Lite
- About 51 pellets behind the 410 in a 1 oz load, from an eighth of an ounce less shot
- "Low Recoil" has no standard behind it as a label, and the speed here is ordinary — the 7/8 oz payload is doing the work
- Kent names no hull or wad for it, where the Remington Premier STS compared is built on a reloadable unibody hull
