Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

Clever has been building target loads in Italy since 1952, and the Mirage Super Target T1 is the shell a lot of clay shooters reach for when they want consistency without paying premium prices. This 12 gauge load runs a 2-3/4" hull stuffed with a full ounce of #9 lead shot, moving right around 1220 fps. That tiny #9 pellet size means you're putting a huge number of pellets into the air, which translates to a thick, even pattern that's tough to shoot around when the bird is close.
That #9 shot is the reason to grab this one over a #7.5 or #8. Skeet shooters love #9 because the stations are close and a dense pattern gives you more margin for a slightly rushed shot. It's also a favorite for the closer targets on a sporting clays course and for doubles work where you need that second bird to break clean. The soft antimony-hardened lead keeps the pellets round through the barrel, so you get patterns that stay tight where you want them.
One of the things folks consistently point out about these Clever shells is how easy they are on the shoulder. The one-ounce payload and moderate velocity keep recoil manageable, which matters when you're running station after station and don't want a flinch creeping into your swing by the end of the day. They burn clean too, so your gun stays cooler and less gunked up over a long session.
Every Clever cartridge gets tested before it ships, and the reputation for reliable ignition and consistent performance is a big part of why these keep showing up in gun bags at the club. If you shoot a lot of skeet or want a soft-shooting close-range clays load that won't beat you up, this Mirage T1 is a solid pick.
The #9 shot makes this load a natural fit for skeet, where targets are close and a dense pattern helps. It also works well on the closer presentations in sporting clays and for doubles. If you're shooting longer trap distances, a #7.5 or #8 would carry more energy downrange.
It's a soft-shooting shell. The one-ounce payload paired with a moderate 1220 fps velocity keeps felt recoil low, which is exactly what you want when running a full round or more without your shooting getting sloppy from fatigue.
Clever cartridges are manufactured in Italy, where the company has been building shotshells since 1952. Each round is tested before it leaves the factory, which is a big reason clay shooters trust them for consistent ignition and patterns.
A one-ounce load of #9 lead shot runs somewhere around 585 pellets. That high pellet count is what gives this shell its thick, even pattern and makes it so forgiving on close targets.
