The Clever Mirage ST T1 delivers purpose-built performance for clay target sports. Made by a manufacturer renowned for quality and reliability, these shells pack 1 ounce of #8 lead shot into a standard 2-3/4" hull, pushing the pellets downrange at 1290 feet per second. That velocity sits right in the sweet spot for breaking clays—fast enough to carry distance but not so extreme that you're fighting unnecessary recoil over a full day of shooting.
These rounds pair tight, uniform patterns with clean burning powders that keep your action running smooth through extended shooting sessions. The 1 oz payload of #8 shot works perfectly for targets at typical clay distances, offering the pellet density you need without the extra recoil that comes with heavier loads. This load is commonly chosen for trap and skeet, though many use it across all clay disciplines where smaller shot sizes shine.
Coming in a 250-round case, the Mirage ST T1 gives you the volume to run full practice days without changing brands mid-range. The plastic hulls are built to last whether you're saving them for reloading or cycling through at the range. Each round is manufactured with the same attention to detail, so you get consistent results shot to shot—the kind of predictability that matters when you're working on your technique.
Clever ammunition has earned a following among competitive shooters worldwide for balancing performance with value. The T1 line represents their core target offering, and it delivers everything you need to learn and compete without breaking the budget.
#8 shot works great for targets at typical clay shooting ranges, usually out to 40 yards. The smaller pellets create a dense pattern that breaks clays cleanly at these distances. For longer shots or when you need more power, moving up to #7.5 shot is a common choice.
At 1290 FPS, the Mirage ST T1 sits in the mid-to-high velocity range for target loads, which makes it versatile for different clay sports. This speed is suitable for trap and skeet, though some shooters prefer slightly slower loads to reduce recoil during extended shooting sessions.
Yes, the plastic hulls are designed to be reloadable. Many shooters save them for reloading, which makes buying by the case even more economical over time. Just make sure your reloading press and dies are set up for standard 2-3/4" 12 gauge hulls.
The Mirage ST T1 is designed as a target load and should cycle fine in most semi-auto shotguns, though some older or heavily tuned competition guns may require testing. If you own a semi-auto, it's always worth running a few rounds at the range before committing to a full case.
The T1 is Clever's core target offering, delivering solid performance and consistency at an accessible price point. Their higher-end lines like the T2, T3, and T4 use premium components and tighter tolerances for competition, but the T1 still puts clays on the ground and reloads well.
