Shooting sporting clays is fun, but you need the best shells for the job. This article will focus on the Federal engineered High Over All, Winchester AA Super Sport, as well as Gordon clay shooting shells. There are many other types available, so make sure you check each one for your specific application. Each type is also discussed in detail.

Clay shooting shells at high velocity

While there are many benefits to high velocity clay firing shells, there are also some disadvantages. These shells are more recoil-sensitive, which can make aiming difficult. The second is that it may be difficult for the shooter to collimate on a target if it is launched from a shallow angle. These disadvantages are overcome by the high velocity clay firing shells.

A shotshell that can destroy sporting clays is called a "competitive edge". COMPETITIVE Edge is a combination of high-tech components, state-of-the art technology, and can achieve a high level of recoil. This shell is also extremely precise, which leads to higher scores. Moreover, this shotshell is a great option for people with limited range.

Gordon clay shooting shells

Gordon invented the hull cartridges in early 1990s. These are highly appreciated by hunters and shooters. A shock-absorbing base wad seals the bottom shell casing of the Gordon hull and anchors it to the end plug tube. The wadding acts as the primer seating. The solid structure of Gordon hull absorbs recoil and results in flatter shot patterns and better penetration.


The Sporting 100 was initially introduced to replace the Pro Sport. It has been redesigned to be the Graphite version. This is fully optimized for clay loads up to mid-range. Eley Superb shotshells are now available in fibre wads. These shells can be used for competition shooting because of their wide shot sizes and high performance. They're also not cheap.

Winchester AA Super Sport

Winchester AA Super Sport shells are designed to shoot sporting clays at greater distances. They are designed to carry heavy loads and large amounts of powder. AA Target loads are made with high-quality components. Copper-plated shot is added to the load to reduce deformation and increase performance. These loads are great for hunting upland and clay birds at higher ranges.

Winchester AA target shotshells have set the standard for consistency, accuracy, and performance. Because they deliver consistent loads shell-after-shell, they are the first choice for trap, sporting, and skeet shotters. High-volume shooting is possible with AA shotshells, which have a 1-1/8-ounce shot. Winchester AA cartridges are lead-free and completely safe, unlike other brands.
