High speed 12-gauge light-weight loads

Light loads running at higher velocities make STRONG & economical loads. 

(Sporting Clays, Huns, Doves and general target).   

PISK (PISTON-SKEET WAD (#072PISK)  

CURMUDGEON likes #8.5 lead shot and #9 lead shot for SPORTING CLAYS loads.   You feel almost no recoil and generate excellent downrange results.   For game situations it is recommended you use slightly larger shot such as #8’s for Dove and use nickel plated lead.
