Fiocchi's VIP line carries genuine credibility in the clay target world. These shells are specifically engineered for trap, skeet, and sporting clays competitions, combining Italian precision in hulls and wads with reliable American powders and shot. Every round comes from the same factory that supplies Olympic competitors and world championship winners.
The #9 shot with 1/2 ounce payload at 1250 fps is built for closer targets, typically within 30 yards. If you're running a .410 on a sub-gauge course where targets are set up for the smaller bore, this is the right choice. The finer pellet size gives you denser patterns in a tighter spread, which is exactly what you need when you're counting on precision.
Fiocchi's "purple" target load isn't just a color choice. It's become recognizable on ranges across the country as a sign of serious shooters who know what they're doing. This reputation didn't happen overnight. It's the result of five decades of listening to competitors, testing under real match conditions, and never cutting corners on component quality.
The combination of smaller shot pellets and the right powder charge means you get more hit probability on fast-moving clays. At 1250 fps, the shells carry enough velocity to cleanly break targets without the unnecessary recoil of heavier magnum loads. This makes them comfortable for long shooting sessions without leaving your shoulder beat up by the end of the day.
Each box contains 25 rounds, and cases come with 10 boxes. Lead shot, non-corrosive. Specifications follow standard 2.5-inch .410 bore dimensions that function reliably across virtually all .410 shotguns.
The smaller #9 pellets give you more shots per ounce, creating a denser pattern that's great for closer range targets. #8 shot is better when you're stretching out to longer yardages. For most .410 sub-gauge courses, #9 is the standard choice for its pellet count advantage in the smaller bore.
These shells are purpose-built for clay target sports. While technically they could be used for very small upland birds at close range, they're designed and priced as competition ammunition. For hunting applications, there are better-suited loads available.
VIP loads use higher-quality components, tighter powder charges, and better wads compared to standard rounds. This means more consistent velocity, tighter patterns, and less shot deformation, all things that matter when your score depends on breaking clays consistently.
Yes. While it's not the fastest .410 load available, 1250 fps is plenty of velocity for a fine shot like #9 to break clays cleanly at typical trap, skeet, and sub-gauge sporting clay distances. The denser pattern from the smaller shot size makes up for any velocity difference versus heavier loads.
