Description
Winchester Super-Target Steel shotshells give you solid clay-busting performance at a price that lets you practice without worrying about ammo costs. These are engineered for the grind of high-volume shooting, whether you're dialing in your swing at the range or competing on the weekend.
What Makes Super-Target Steel Work for Clay Games
These shells are built with clean-burning powder and quality primers that keep your patterns consistent shot to shot. The hinged wad design reduces felt recoil while maintaining velocity, so you can stay focused on the next target instead of managing flinch during long sessions. At 1200 fps, you get enough velocity for the distances most shooters encounter without unnecessary harshness.
Steel Shot Advantages for Your Shooting
Steel pellets don't deform under firing pressure the way lead does, which means tighter, more efficient patterns downrange. The number 7 shot size is ideal for clay targets out to about 35 yards, giving you that dense pattern spread you need to break targets reliably. With steel, you're also getting more pellets per ounce compared to lead, so pattern density stays consistent throughout a shooting session.
Built for All Three Clay Games
These loads pattern well in trap, handle the varied angles of sporting clays, and work great for skeet. The 1-1/8 ounce load with 25 rounds per box makes it easy to grab a couple boxes and spend the day shooting without excessive recoil fatigue.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these Winchester Super-Target shells good for both trap and sporting clays?
Yes, these shells pattern well across all three clay games. The number 7 steel shot and 1200 fps velocity give you the consistency needed for trap's controlled shooting and the versatility for sporting clays' varied angles. You'll want to match your choke to your distance, but the load itself handles the job.
How far can I expect these shells to be effective?
Number 7 steel shot is reliable out to about 35 yards. Beyond that distance, the pellets lose energy faster than larger shot would. Most trap and skeet shooting happens well within this range, so you'll get solid performance where it matters for clay games.
Why choose steel shot over lead for clay shooting?
Steel pellets don't deform during firing, which actually tightens your patterns and helps them stay consistent. You also get more pellets per ounce with steel, which means better pattern density. These shells work great if your shooting venue requires non-lead ammunition or if you just prefer the pattern performance steel delivers.
Do these cause more recoil than other shotshell options?
The hinged wad in these shells is designed to reduce felt recoil, so you won't get hammered even during long range sessions. The 1200 fps velocity is moderate for clay loads, keeping recoil manageable while still delivering the energy you need for target breaking.
