The Federal Top Gun TGS1288 delivers consistent performance for clay target shooting at an accessible price point. This 12-gauge load combines reliable ignition with uniform shot patterns, making it a solid choice for trap, skeet, and sporting clays competition.

What Makes This Different

Federal's Top Gun line focuses on value without sacrificing the fundamentals that matter most. The 1-ounce payload of #8 shot provides optimal pellet count for breaking clays while maintaining manageable recoil. Quality brass cases and reliable primers ensure consistent cycling in semi-automatic shotguns, while the 2.75-inch length fits virtually all 12-gauge chambers.

Key Features

• 1-ounce #8 shot payload optimized for clay target breaking
• 2.75-inch brass case compatible with all 12-gauge chambers
• Consistent velocity for predictable shot patterns
• Reliable primer ignition for semi-automatic cycling
• 25 shells per box, 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)
• Federal quality control standards for consistent performance
• Moderate recoil suitable for extended shooting sessions

The #8 shot size strikes the right balance between pellet count and individual pellet energy for clay sports. Each shell contains approximately 410 pellets, providing dense patterns at typical clay target distances. The moderate velocity reduces felt recoil compared to high-velocity hunting loads, allowing shooters to maintain form through long practice sessions or competition rounds.
