The Fiocchi Exacta VIP 28 gauge shells are purpose-built for competitive shooters who demand consistency shot after shot. These 2.75-inch shells pack a 3/4-ounce load of #9 lead shot, loaded to 1200 fps—the sweet spot for target disciplines where pattern density matters more than raw velocity.
The #9 pellet size is the preferred choice for skeet shooting at close distances where clays are typically 15 to 40 yards out. With more pellets per shell, you get denser patterns and tighter grouping, which dramatically improves your chances of consistent breaks. This load's balanced recoil and manageable kick make it comfortable during long practice sessions and tournament days when you're running 100-plus rounds.
Fiocchi has been supporting competitive shooters for 50 years, and the Exacta VIP line carries that pedigree. These shells are loaded to strict tolerances with premium components, the kind used by Olympic and world-class competitors. You get the same quality control standards that serious clay shooters depend on when it counts. The purple hull is Fiocchi's signature look for their target loads—instantly recognizable on the range.
The 28 gauge occupies a unique space in clay sports. It's lighter on recoil than a 20 gauge, lets you feel the gun better, and forces you to shoot with more precision since it has fewer pellets downrange. Competitive shooters who master the 28 respect what it teaches. Combined with the measured 1200 fps velocity, these Exacta VIP shells cycle reliably in semi-automatic shotguns while keeping pattern consistency tight enough for sub-gauge competition.
The #9 shot makes these particularly ideal for skeet shooting where targets are close and dense patterns are critical. They work well for 16-yard trap singles and skeet-style presentations in sporting clays. While #9 is smaller than some shooters prefer for longer crossing shots, competitors who shoot 28 gauge competitively rely on them for their intended close-range applications.
Exacta VIP shells are loaded to tighter tolerances with premium components specifically for consistent competition performance. Standard loads are fine for casual shooting, but competitive shells like these deliver the shot-to-shot reliability and pattern consistency that separates winners from the rest of the field during matches.
Yes. The 1200 fps velocity is standard for target loads and cycles reliably in most semi-automatic shotguns designed for 28 gauge. If you've shot other 28 gauge target shells through your gun without issues, these will function the same way. Always verify your shotgun's manual to confirm it's set up for your shells.
Number 9 shot delivers more pellets per shell, creating denser patterns at close range. If you're shooting skeet or 16-yard trap where most of your targets are inside 40 yards, the extra pattern density from #9 makes breaking targets more forgiving. Number 8 is more versatile for longer distances, so your choice depends on where you primarily compete.
