Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953
Secure Transactions provided with 
Winchester picked one of its most respected loads to help mark 250 years of American history, and it makes sense why the AA target shell landed a spot in the lineup. This box pairs archive-inspired artwork with a shotshell that's been a staple at trap and skeet clubs for six decades, so you get a piece of the commemorative series that still earns its keep at the range.
This particular box is part of the Building Traditions package in Winchester's five box commemorative series, each one tied to a different chapter of American history. The outer packaging is a rigid display box with a magnetic closure lid, and there's a printed story tucked inside the lid that ties the artwork back to the AA load's own history. Production on the full series is capped at 15,000 boxes, so once these are gone, that's it for this run.
Under the collector packaging is Winchester's actual AA target load, the same 2.75 inch 12 gauge shell that's been the choice of trap, skeet, and sporting clays shooters since 1965. Each shell carries 1 1/8 ounce of #8 lead shot alloyed with antimony for harder, rounder pellets, launched at 1,145 fps out of a high-strength hull with a brass head. The AA wad is built to tighten patterns while keeping felt recoil manageable, and the whole load runs on Winchester's best-in-class primer and powder for clean, consistent burns shot after shot.
Each box holds 10 rounds, with cases running 6 boxes for 60 rounds total, so you can pick up a single box to display or stock up if you'd rather burn through them on the clays. Because the shells themselves are standard AA hulls, they're just as reloadable as the ones you've probably already got sitting around the bench. It's a nice way to have a piece of the anniversary series without giving up any of the performance Winchester built its name on.
It's built on Winchester's actual AA target load, so it patterns and performs exactly like the standard AA 12 gauge shells trap and skeet crowds have shot for decades. Plenty of buyers keep a box or two for display and pick up extra cases for actual round count on the line. Either use works since the shell itself isn't a novelty item, just dressed up in commemorative packaging.
This edition ships in a rigid display box with a magnetic closure lid, and there's a piece of the Building Traditions story printed inside that lid. It's one of five packages in Winchester's 250th anniversary series, with total production capped at 15,000 boxes.
Each box holds 10 rounds of 2.75 inch #8 shot. A case runs 6 boxes for 60 rounds total, so you can grab a single collectible box or stock up on a full case for a day at the club.
Yes, this load uses the same high-strength hull and brass head construction as Winchester's regular AA shells, which reloaders have relied on for years. Since this is a limited run though, a lot of buyers hang onto the hulls or the whole box as part of the collectible set instead of running them through a press.
