The Challenger First Class Target Load in 28 gauge is the kind of shell that keeps the fun in a day at the clays range. It pairs a 3/4 ounce charge of #8 lead shot with a 2-3/4 inch hull, moving downrange at right around 1200 fps. That combination gives you the dense, consistent pattern you want for skeet, sporting clays, and lighter upland situations, all with the soft, easygoing recoil the 28 is famous for.
Small gauge shooters tend to be particular about their ammo, and this load earns its spot in the bag. The #8 shot size puts plenty of pellets in the air for close to mid-range clay targets, so you get a fuller pattern and more margin for error when a bird breaks hard off the house. Challenger builds these on quality European-style components with clean-burning powder, which means less residue in the action and more rounds between cleanings. If you run an over/under or a semi-auto in 28, these tend to cycle and pattern nicely.
Made in Canada and assembled from solid components, Challenger has built a reputation among upland hunters and competitive clay shooters for dependable ignition and consistent performance at a price that lets you shoot more. The 28 gauge is a format people fall in love with because it recoils so lightly while still breaking targets convincingly, and this target load leans right into that character. It is a great choice for new shooters working on form, seasoned clay busters logging high round counts, and anyone who just enjoys the balance and feel of a fine 28 gauge gun.
Stock up before your next league night or weekend round and keep the little gun fed.
This load is built for clay target sports like skeet and sporting clays, and it works well for lighter upland situations too. The #8 shot and 3/4 ounce payload put a dense pattern in the air for close to mid-range targets. It is a solid all-around practice and competition round for the 28 gauge.
The 28 gauge is well known for being easy on the shoulder, and this 3/4 ounce load keeps things gentle. At around 1200 fps with a light payload, it is comfortable for long days at the range and a favorite for newer shooters and anyone who wants to keep round counts high without fatigue.
Many shooters run Challenger target loads through both over/unders and semi-autos without trouble. As with any ammo, cycling in a gas gun can depend on your specific shotgun and how it is tuned, but these are standard pressure target loads that most 28 gauge autos handle fine.
These are loaded with #8 lead shot, which is a classic choice for clay targets and small upland birds. The #8 size gives you a high pellet count for a fuller, more forgiving pattern at typical clay distances.
