Description

These are the shells that competitive shooters reach for when they need ammunition that won't let them down. The Fiocchi VIP Exacta line carries a legacy that goes back fifty years of supporting serious clay target competitors in trap, skeet, sporting clays, and FITASC. That legacy shows up in every round you fire.

The 28 gauge benefits from a lighter gun and softer recoil without sacrificing what you need to break clay. This is where the VIP Exacta earns its reputation. Each 2.75 inch shell carries 3/4 ounce of lead shot and runs at 1200 fps, a velocity that works perfectly for most clay target ranges and presentations. The number 8 shot size gives you the pellet density needed to deliver reliable patterns whether you're shooting at moderate distance or adapting to varied presentations across different stations.

Purpose-Built Fiocchi VIP Load Performance

These aren't generic target shells. The VIP line uses high-quality components and strict load tolerances developed through extensive testing with the shooters who demand the most from their ammunition. The consistent performance comes from careful attention to every aspect of the load, from the primer and powder to the wad and pellets. That consistency matters when you're working to improve your scores or fine-tune your technique.

Compact and Comfortable in the 28 Gauge

The 28 gauge itself offers something hard to find elsewhere in clay shooting. You get the ergonomic benefits of a lighter shotgun and reduced felt recoil, which means you can stay sharper through extended practice sessions or competition days. The smaller shot charge keeps your shoulder fresher without compromising pattern quality when you're using appropriate shot sizes for the game you're playing.

25 rounds per box means you can take them straight to the range or use them for match preparation. Many 28 gauge competitors keep these on hand because they represent the kind of quality ammunition that lets your skills speak for themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Fiocchi VIP Exacta shells suitable for both trap and sporting clays?

Yes. The number 8 shot size and 1200 fps velocity work well across different clay target disciplines. Trap shooters typically favor #8 for this velocity range, and it patterns effectively at the moderate distances common to sporting clays. Many shooters stock #8 as their go-to round for versatility across multiple games.

How does the 28 gauge recoil compare to larger gauges for clay shooting?

The 28 gauge generates noticeably less felt recoil than 12 or 20 gauge loads because of the lighter shot charge. This reduced recoil makes extended practice sessions more comfortable and helps shooters maintain focus and accuracy through high-volume shooting days. You get this benefit without sacrificing the pattern consistency these VIP loads deliver.

What makes Fiocchi's VIP line different from other target loads?

The VIP line uses premium components and undergoes extensive load development and field testing to meet the standards of Olympic and world-class competitive shooters. These shells deliver tighter quality control and consistency compared to standard target ammunition, which translates to more reliable patterns shot after shot.

Can I use the 28VIP8 for hunting as well as clay target shooting?

These shells are engineered specifically for clay target competition. While the light shot charge and target-optimized design make them less suitable for hunting game, the #8 shot and 1200 fps velocity are purpose-built to break clay pigeons reliably.
