These Competition One loads pack 1 ounce of #9 lead shot traveling at 1160 fps, a proven setup for anyone spending serious time at the skeet range. The 1 oz payload in #9 gives you dense pellet counts in a tight spread, which is exactly what you want when targets are coming at you fast and close.
B&P's Gordon System uses a specially molded base wad that slightly compresses during firing, dampening the energy transfer to your shoulder by up to 15%. The conical shape optimizes powder burn, which contributes to both the soft recoil feel and the consistent velocities you get round after round. This is built into the hull itself, not a gimmick you add later. Shooters with experience at multiple disciplines report these shells deliver the softest recoil they've encountered without requiring reduced loads that wouldn't hold up to competition standards.
Patterns from these rounds come out uniform and dense thanks to pre-cut wad design and high-quality graphite-coated lead shot with 5% antimony hardening. That consistency is what keeps your confidence up during long training sessions or when you're grinding through practice days. The 1160 fps velocity is right in the sweet spot for clay sports where you don't need maximum range, just reliable performance that feels good shot after shot.
B&P manufactures their own powder and components in-house, which means tighter quality control than you'd expect at this price point. These rounds feed reliably and extract cleanly, which matters when you're running hundreds of rounds through a semi-auto in a single session.
The Gordon base wad has a molded divot that compresses during firing, which absorbs and redistributes the firing pressure more gradually. This reduces felt recoil by up to 15% without sacrificing velocity. It makes the shot feel significantly softer while maintaining the 1160 fps speed needed for reliable clay breaks.
Number 9 is ideal for skeet where targets come in close, but it's less common for trap since targets move away from you. The smaller pellets lose energy faster over distance. For trap, you'd typically want #7.5 or #8 to maintain effectiveness at longer ranges. Skeet shooters prefer #9 for the denser pattern at close distances.
B&P Competition One loads use high-quality powder that generates sufficient gas for reliable ejection in semi-auto shotguns. Most shooters report excellent reliability, though occasionally some shotguns may have feeding preferences. The pre-cut wads and consistent components help ensure smooth function across different gun types.
Yes, the hulls are reloadable. However, the Gordon System recoil-dampening effect only works fully in factory-loaded shells since the base wad divot doesn't function the same way after the first firing. Reloaded shells still shoot fine and pattern well, but you lose some of the signature soft recoil feel that makes these shells special.
