Deep Dive
Overview
This 20 gauge ammo is intended for clay target training and competition, including trap, skeet, and sporting clays. The 7/8 oz payload is the standard charge weight for 20 gauge target shooting, delivering practical pattern density without generating excessive recoil. The #7.5 shot size is a versatile choice across clay disciplines, performing well at both closer and mid-range presentations. Shooters looking for a reliable 20 gauge training load built for consistent performance across long range sessions will find the Competition One a practical fit.
History and Development
Baschieri & Pellagri has been manufacturing shotshells since 1885, building its identity around precision loading, in-house powder development, and purpose-specific product design. The Competition One line was developed as B&P's dedicated training and competition offering, covering a wide range of gauges, payloads, shot sizes, and velocities to fit the needs of shooters across multiple clay target disciplines. The company develops its own powder formulations, maintaining direct control over burn rate and fouling characteristics across its product lines. That focus on component-level engineering has been central to the B&P brand throughout its history.
