The Winchester Super-X 12 Gauge 2-3/4-inch 1 oz #7.5 Lead Shot Game Load 25-round box is specialized shotshell ammunition engineered explicitly for harvesting upland game birds, taking small game, and shooting recreational clay sports. Standard low-velocity field loads often yield patchy downrange pattern coverage or lack the kinetic energy needed to fold fast-flying targets at distance. Winchester overcomes these pattern limits by driving a 1-ounce payload of #7.5 hard lead shot at a high-velocity 1,290 FPS (3-1/4 Dram Equivalent), delivering dense pattern saturation, high pellet counts, and crisp kinetic transfer downrange.
The core structural advantage rests in the high-antimony, hardened lead shot construction paired with Winchester's one-piece plastic cushioned wad. The hardened lead pellets resist crushing and deformation under peak chamber ignition pressures, preserving spherical geometry as shot travels down the barrel and through choke tubes. Simultaneously, the cushioned wad absorbs initial setback shock to reduce felt recoil while forming a complete gas seal to maintain uniform muzzle velocities across shot strings.
Assembled in high-durability, ribbed plastic hulls with low-brass metal headers, every shell utilizes clean-burning propellants and Winchester's legendary non-corrosive 209 primer. This combination provides instantaneous ignition in cold-weather hunting environments, reliable chamber sealing, clean combustion, and smooth mechanical feeding and extraction across over-under, pump-action, and semi-automatic 12-gauge shotguns.
Key Benefits
- High-Velocity 1,290 FPS Output: Generates high kinetic energy and tight, uniform shot patterns for clean harvests and broken clays.
- Hardened #7.5 Lead Shot: Deformation-resistant lead pellets preserve roundness for true flight and dense pattern distribution.
- Cushioned One-Piece Wad: Softens felt recoil impulse while establishing an efficient gas seal for consistent velocity output.
- Winchester 209 Primer Ignition: Delivers hot, instantaneous ignition and clean combustion across all environmental temperatures.
