8 Lead Shot Ammo For Sale
Overview of 8 Lead Shot Ammo
#8 lead shot is a versatile option favored for a wide range of shooting activities, from casual plinking to competitive events like trap, skeet, and sporting clays. Its dense pattern and manageable recoil make it ideal for breaking clay targets and engaging in precision shooting. While its smaller pellet size limits its effectiveness for larger game, #8 shot can be used for varmint control within 30 yards, making it suitable for smaller pests like snakes or birds.
When compared to steel shot, #8 lead shot offers more power and superior range. However, it’s important to note that many regulations require switching to steel shot for environmental reasons. Whether you're using 12 gauge, 16 gauge, or 20 gauge shells, #8 lead shot remains a popular and reliable choice for shooting sports and small-scale pest control.
For 20 gauge shooters who participate in frequent trap, skeet, or sporting clays competitions, purchasing 20 gauge ammo bulk with #8 lead shot offers significant savings and ensures you're always ready for your next competition or practice session.

I wish the shooter performed as well as these rounds! I shoot 250 and one week I was red hot and the second round I was cold! So basically When it was warmer I thought the rounds shot hot....but in the cooler weather the gun performed better. These were an excellent target round for shooting skeet for the price!

Of the last two cases I received, I’ve shot 4 boxes at the sporting clays range. It was very strange but of those boxes, 2 of the shells had been crushed with the metal rim folded down, making them unshootable. (Of course)

Took my new Benelli Nova Pump to the range and the first 4 shells in a row (from 2 separate boxes) fired fine, but jammed the fore-end so I couldn't eject the shell without very forcefully yanking back. I assume the brass casing expanded way more than it should have. I then tried 4 different brands and each worked flawlessly. Put the Rio back in and it jammed immediately. I ended up switching to an over-under gun and they performed fine in that. So, they may work fine for you in a different type of gun, but I wouldn't recommend them for a Benelli pump.

When I went to shoot the number eight shot after shooting seven and a half shot there was no malfunctions no bad shooting or anything went really well it planked really well at the range and will most likely be buying another set of 250 or maybe 500
