History 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, 16, or 20 gauge, #8 lead shot remains a popular and reliable choice for shooting sports and small-scale pest control.

Had no issues with these shells. Fires well. No malfunctions.

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.

FedEx either dropped it off on the street or FedEx employee stole the package. I will never order online again
