Description

These Fiocchi VIP Exacta shells are built for clay target competition, not casual plinking. The purple hull is instantly recognizable among serious competitors because Fiocchi has spent over five decades refining these loads to win at the highest levels of trap, skeet, sporting clays, FITASC, and Compaq shooting. The formula works: consistent velocities, reliable ignition, and tight patterns round after round.

Velocity and Pattern Consistency

Loaded to 1300 fps, these shells carry the energy needed for longer crossing shots while staying within competitive ammunition standards. The 3/4 ounce of #8 lead shot strikes the ideal balance for clay shooting, giving you enough pellets per shot for pattern density without over-powdering the recoil. Number 8 shot is versatile enough to break targets at typical trap and sporting clays distances while maintaining the precision these sports demand.

Built for High-Volume Shooting

Each box contains 25 shells, and the VIP line uses quality components throughout, including first-run chilled shot, 1-piece shot cups, and cushioned wads. These details add up when you're shooting 100-plus rounds in a day. The consistent performance means less variation between shots, which translates to tighter groups and fewer missed targets. Whether you're at a registered match or drilling at the range, these shells cycle reliably through both semi-automatics and over-unders.

Why Competitors Choose VIP

The Exacta VIP represents Fiocchi's match-oriented target ammunition philosophy, and the distinctive purple shell is trusted by clay shooters nationwide. These aren't the cheapest rounds available, but they're engineered with competition in mind, not cost-cutting. If you're serious about clay shooting, the consistency and performance justify the investment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is #8 shot the right size for sporting clays and trap shooting?

Yes. Number 8 shot is the industry standard for clay target sports. It provides excellent pattern density for breaking targets at typical distances in trap, skeet, and sporting clays while carrying enough energy to cleanly break birds out to 40+ yards. Many competitors use #8 as their primary load regardless of discipline.

What's the difference between the VIP Exacta and other Fiocchi 28 gauge loads?

The VIP Exacta is Fiocchi's premium match-oriented line, optimized for competition through 50+ years of development. It delivers more consistent patterns and velocities than budget lines, which matters when you're competing. The distinctive purple hull is trusted by serious clay shooters. Other Fiocchi lines prioritize value for casual shooting and hunting.

Will these cycle in a semi-automatic shotgun?

Yes. The 1300 fps velocity is sufficient to reliably cycle most modern semi-automatic shotguns. If you have a semi that's sensitive to lighter loads, these VIP shells have enough energy to function properly. For over-unders, these shells perform without issue.

How many shells do I need for a round of trap or skeet?

A standard round is 25 targets, so one box of these shells covers one round. For sporting clays, standard rounds are either 50 or 100 targets depending on the course, so you'll need 2-4 boxes. Many shooters buy in bulk for competition days.
