The Winchester AA Super Sport 12 Gauge 2-3/4-inch 1-1/8 oz #7.5 Shot 25-round box is a high-velocity target shotshell engineered specifically for competitive sporting clays, trap, and skeet disciplines. A primary friction point in high-volume competitive clay target shooting is pellet deformation during ignition and forcing cone passage, which creates stray flyers, open patterns, and missed long-range targets. Winchester resolves these target-shooting limitations by utilizing high-antimony lead shot paired with the legendary AA cushion wad system, protecting pellet geometry to ensure dense, uniform patterns and decisive clay breaks at extended distances.
The primary technical advantage relies on the structural hardness of the payload and internal setback protection. Increased antimony content hardens the #7.5 lead pellets, preventing flat-spotting and distortion as the shot column accelerates through the bore and choke. The proprietary AA cushion wad collapses progressively upon ignition, absorbing setback shock to stabilize the shot column, preserve spherical pellet shape, and reduce felt recoil during long, multi-round shooting events.
Launching its 1-1/8 oz target payload at 1,300 FPS, this AA Super Sport load produces a fast-moving shot column that shortens necessary leads on fast-crossing clay targets while delivering heavy energy transfer downrange. Built using high-strength, compression-molded AA hulls fitted with non-corrosive primers and clean-burning propellants, it guarantees smooth feeding, uniform chamber sealing, and clean ejection in over/under, semi-automatic, and pump-action target shotguns. It is the gold standard selection for serious competitive marksmen and clay enthusiasts.
