The Clever T3 HV Game is a 12-gauge hunting load built by Clever Mirage in Verona, Italy, the same house that produces competition ammunition for Olympic and World Championship shooters. This 2-3/4" shell carries a generous 1-1/4 ounce payload of #7.5 lead shot and is built around high velocity, which is exactly what you want when birds are moving quick and the shots stretch out past comfortable range. The HV Game line was created for hunters who need speed and extra-long reach, and it patterns well across a range of field situations.
That #7.5 shot size is the sweet spot for a lot of wingshooting. It splits the difference between pellet count and downrange energy, so you get a dense pattern that still carries enough punch to reach out. Dove hunters lean on 7.5 when the birds get educated later in the season and the shots get longer, and it holds a pattern better in the wind than lighter 8s or 9s. This load is equally at home on quail, and it has enough backbone for close-flushing pheasant and other upland game when you point it right.
Most dove and quail loads run 1 to 1-1/8 ounce, so the full 1-1/4 ounce charge in the T3 HV Game gives you more pellets in the air on every trigger pull. More shot in the pattern means a better margin for error on those quick crossing shots, and paired with the high velocity, you get flatter lead and solid energy on the far end. It's a load you can trust when you want the extra insurance of a heavier charge without stepping up to a magnum shell.
Clever runs quality components through their shells, and that Italian build reputation is a big part of why the brand keeps showing up in serious shooters' gun rooms. If you run a modified or improved cylinder choke, this shell will treat you right in the dove field or on an upland walk.
This load was built for hunters who need high speed and extra range, which makes it a strong pick for dove and quail. The #7.5 shot and 1-1/4 ounce payload also give it enough pattern density and energy for close-flushing upland birds. It's a versatile field load that covers most small and medium game bird situations.
The #7.5 shot carries a bit more retained energy and holds its pattern better in the wind, so it reaches out farther than #8. That makes it a smart choice for later in the season when doves get spooky and shots stretch past 30 yards. Many hunters run #8 early and switch to #7.5 as the birds get harder to approach.
It's made by Clever Mirage, an Italian ammunition company based in Verona. Clever is well known for building competition loads used by Olympic and World Championship shooters, so their hunting lines carry that same reputation for quality components and consistency.
For dove and general upland work, improved cylinder or modified chokes tend to give the best balance of pattern spread and reach. If your shots are running longer or the birds are wary, tighten up to modified or improved modified to keep the pattern dense downrange. Patterning your specific gun with this load is always the best way to dial it in.
