Kent Elite Steel Target loads give you the confidence to focus on breaking clays rather than worrying about your ammunition. Loaded with Precision Steel shot, these 20 gauge shells produce the kind of consistent, predictable patterning that keeps you in the game all day long.
These shells run at 1215 feet per second with a 7/8 ounce charge of #7 shot. That velocity and payload combination sits right in the sweet spot for target work where you're not chasing extreme power but need reliable, clean breaks on clay targets. The Precision Steel shot processes through a polishing method that promotes uniform pellet formation, which translates to tighter, more dependable patterns downrange.
If your range requires non-toxic ammunition or you're shooting at a facility with steel shot mandates, these shells bridge the gap between compliance and performance. Steel is harder and denser than lead, which means slightly different ballistics you'll want to dial in at the patterning board. Most folks find that #7 steel patterns similarly to #8 lead, so if you're transitioning from lead loads, you'll adjust quickly. The key is testing your specific gun and choke combination before match day.
Kent designed these for consistency. Whether you're working through a practice round or a full event, the uniform shot charge and clean-burning powder help maintain the same performance from shell one through shell twenty-five. The manageable recoil makes extended range sessions less punishing on your shoulder, which means better form and follow-up shots when you need them.
Your shotgun needs to be rated for steel shot use. Steel is harder than lead and can cause damage to barrels not designed for it. Check your owner's manual or contact the manufacturer to confirm steel shot compatibility before shooting. If your gun is steel-safe, you're good to go.
Most clay target shooters find #7 steel patterns roughly like #8 lead because steel's density and hardness create slightly different pellet spread. You'll want to pattern these Kent loads in your specific shotgun with your preferred choke tubes before a competition or serious practice session to dial in your hold points.
These work well for trap and sporting clays practice. Note that some competitive events have specific ammunition rules, particularly for skeet or formal trap competitions. Check your event guidelines since #7 shot has specific restrictions in some sanctioned disciplines.
Kent's Precision Steel goes through a shot polishing process that improves pellet consistency and formation for uniform patterning. Combined with their custom powder blend, you get reliable, predictable performance throughout the box, which matters when you're trying to break targets consistently.
