Product Overview

Winchester Super Target Light Load is a 1 1/8 oz, 2 3/4-inch 12-gauge target load made for trap and sporting clays. Winchester's clean-burning powder and primer push round lead #8 to 1,145 fps. A full 1 1/8 oz makes it a standard target load, and 1,145 fps is the slow end of that class.

The charge comes to about 461 pellets of #8. Free recoil is about 20 ft-lbs in a 7.5 lb gun. A 1,145 fps shell is light enough that some gas guns short-cycle it, depending on how the gun is set up.

If you're cross-shopping, Winchester's own Super Target Heavy Load carries the same 1 1/8 oz of #8 at 1,200 fps for about 23 ft-lbs in the same gun. Federal's Top Gun Target Load in the Pink and Patriot hulls matches the 1 1/8 oz of #8 at 1,145 fps, under Federal's own wad column and crimp.

Strengths
  • Legal for ATA 16-yard trap, where 1 1/8 oz is the heaviest payload allowed
  • Matches the softest recoil of the 1 1/8 oz shells compared, at the full payload
  • The same pellet count as the 1,200 fps version of this shell, 55 fps slower
Limitations
  • Lead, so it is no use at a range that has gone nontoxic
  • Payload, shot size, speed and recoil all match the Federal Top Gun 1 1/8 oz #8 shells compared, which leaves the hull color as the visible difference
