The Remington Premier Nitro 27 Handicap delivers the consistent velocity and tight patterns competitive trap shooters demand for handicap yardage success. This premium 12-gauge load combines Remington's proven powder technology with precision-engineered components to break targets at extended distances where standard loads fall short.
What Makes This Different
The Nitro 27 formula generates higher velocities than standard trap loads while maintaining consistent shot-to-shot performance. Where typical 12-gauge trap loads produce 1,200 fps muzzle velocity, this handicap-specific loading pushes 1-1/8 ounces of #7.5 shot at 1,330 fps. The increased velocity translates to flatter trajectory and more retained energy at the 27-yard handicap line, giving competitive shooters the edge needed for consistent target breaks.
Key Features
- High-velocity 1,330 fps loading optimized for handicap trap shooting
- 1-1/8 ounce payload of premium #7.5 shot for optimal pattern density
- 2.75-inch hull length fits all 12-gauge shotguns and semi-automatics
- Consistent powder charge ensures uniform velocities shot after shot
- Hard shot pellets resist deformation for tighter patterns
- 25-round boxes with 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)
- Remington's quality control standards for competition reliability
Competitive trap shooters recognize the challenge of handicap yardage, where targets appear smaller and require faster shot strings to connect. The Nitro 27's increased velocity reduces lead requirements and delivers devastating impact energy even at maximum handicap distances. Weather conditions that affect standard loads have less impact on these high-performance rounds, maintaining consistency across temperature ranges and humidity levels.
