B&P 12B1SC85 Sporting Clay 12 Gauge 2.75" 1oz #8.5 Shot 25rd

The B&P 12B1SC85 delivers consistent patterns and reliable ignition for competitive sporting clay shooting. This Italian-manufactured ammunition features precision-loaded #8.5 shot in a 2.75-inch hull, optimized for breaking targets at sporting clay courses where consistent performance determines scores.

What Makes This Different

B&P ammunition incorporates European manufacturing standards with harder shot pellets that maintain spherical shape through the barrel and choke. The company's progressive powder burn rate produces lower felt recoil compared to standard sporting loads while maintaining 1,200 fps muzzle velocity. Quality control testing ensures shot weight variance stays within 0.5 grains across production runs.

Key Features

• 1 oz of #8.5 shot provides optimal pellet count for sporting clay targets
• 2.75-inch hull fits all 12-gauge shotguns including semi-automatics
• Italian-made brass heads resist extraction issues in rapid-fire sequences
• Progressive powder burn reduces muzzle jump for faster target acquisition
• Consistent 1,200 fps velocity maintains effective range to 40+ yards
• Hard shot pellets resist deformation through modified and improved cylinder chokes
• 25 rounds per box with 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)

Sporting clay courses demand ammunition that performs across varying target presentations and distances. The #8.5 shot size bridges the gap between #8 and #9, providing sufficient pellet energy for reliable target breaks while maintaining pattern density. Weather-resistant primers ensure reliable ignition in humid conditions common at outdoor ranges.
