The Fiocchi 20VIPH8 Exacta Target VIP Heavy delivers consistent performance for competitive clay shooting with premium components and precise shot patterns. This 20-gauge target load features enhanced velocity and uniform pellet distribution that serious shooters demand for tournament-level accuracy.
What Makes This Different
Fiocchi's VIP Heavy line uses premium hard shot and specially formulated powder charges that produce tighter patterns than standard target loads. The 7/8-ounce payload generates 15% more downrange energy compared to lighter 3/4-ounce loads while maintaining manageable recoil. Advanced wad design and consistent crimping ensure shot-to-shot reliability that competitive shooters require.
