FED ALL AMER 12GA 2.75″ 1 1/8OZ #7.5

Description

Federal’s All-American line is built around competitive clay target shooting — trap and skeet — where consistent patterns and manageable recoil matter more than raw power. This 12-gauge load is engineered to perform in that environment rather than the field, and the design choices reflect it.

At the core of the shell is Federal’s Podium wad, a one-piece design built specifically for straight-wall hulls. The wad includes a compression zone that absorbs the initial shock of ignition before the payload starts moving down the bore. That cushioning action protects shot roundness at the moment of peak pressure, which translates directly into more uniform patterns at the target. Deformed pellets fly erratically; round ones don’t.

The shot itself is high-antimony lead, a harder alloy than standard lead shot. Higher antimony content resists deformation during the violence of firing, which reinforces the same goal as the wad design — keeping pellets spherical from primer ignition to the breaking clay. The payload count of 394 pellets gives a dense, workable pattern at typical trap and skeet distances without pushing recoil to a level that causes flinching over a long day of shooting.

The 1,145 fps muzzle velocity sits in a range that’s been proven effective for clay target work — fast enough to break birds reliably, but not so aggressive that it punishes the shooter or produces excessive muzzle rise. Federal uses its own primers throughout, which contributes to the ignition consistency that competition shooting demands. Each box contains 25 shells.
