Rio Star Team Target Low Recoil, 12 Gauge, 2 3/4", 1 oz, 7.5 Shot Ballistics
2 3/4-inch shell • 1 oz of #7.5 lead shot
Product Overview
Rio Star Team Target Low Recoil is a 1 oz, 2 3/4-inch 12-gauge target load made for trap, skeet and sporting clays. One ounce of lead #7.5 leaves at 1,200 fps. A 1 oz charge is a light target load, and 1,200 fps is an ordinary speed for one.
An ounce of #7.5 comes to about 350 pellets, the same count as every 1 oz #7.5 load compared, so speed is the only thing separating their recoil. Free recoil here is about 18 ft-lbs in a 7.5 lb gun.
If you're cross-shopping, Fiocchi Shooting Dynamics loads the same ounce of #7.5 at both 1,200 and 1,250 fps, so one of the two sits on this shell's figures exactly and the other is 50 fps up on it. Federal's Top Gun Target Load goes the other way at 1,180 fps.
- Legal for ATA 16-yard trap with 125 fps of velocity headroom at 1 oz
- A 10 mm brass-plated head, the one construction figure Rio gives for it
- About 2 ft-lbs less recoil in a 7.5 lb gun than the 1,250 fps 1 oz loads compared, out of the same ounce of shot
- Low Recoil is Rio's label and nothing more; the Federal Top Gun Target Load compared is softer still at 1,180 fps, and the Fiocchi shell at 1,200 fps lands on the same figures as this one
- Lead shot, so any range that requires nontoxic shot is out
