Federal All American 20 Gauge 2 3/4-inch 7/8 oz #8 Lead Shot is a premium competition-grade shell built to win at the Trap line. This load features the specialized Podium wad, which is customized for straight-wall hulls to ensure peak performance and softer shooting.

Built with high-quality propellants and legendary Federal primers, the All American series is designed for the high-volume needs of competitive shooters. This 20 gauge ammo is available in 25-round boxes, and bulk cases of 250 ship free from Target Sports USA.

Deep Dive
Overview
This 20 gauge ammo is for competitive clay target shooting. The #8 lead shot is for shooters participating in Trap events where high pellet counts are necessary to ensure breaks on difficult targets. It is suitable for high-volume use during tournaments where the 1,200 fps velocity provides plenty of power without causing excessive fatigue. Shooters use these rounds because the Podium wad reduces the kick felt at ignition, allowing for better focus during long strings of fire. The 7/8 oz payload is perfectly balanced for the 20 gauge platform to deliver effective coverage on the range.
History and Development
The Federal All American line was developed to provide shooters with a high-performance solution that focuses on proven terminal ballistics. By utilizing traditional shot and projectile designs, this product line delivers consistent results across different platforms. The series addresses the needs of shooters who require a projectile to maintain integrity and accuracy over distance. These loads maximize efficiency by using specialized wads that protect the shot column, ensuring the projectile remains effective from the muzzle to the target.
Common Questions and FAQs
- Does this ammo ship for free?
Yes. When you purchase a bulk case of 250 rounds, your entire order ships for free from Target Sports USA.
- Why use #8 shot for Trap?
#8 shot provides a high pellet count, which creates a denser pattern to help ensure you break the clay even if your lead is slightly off.
- What is the benefit of the Podium wad?
It has a built-in compression zone that acts like a shock absorber, protecting the shot from being crushed and making the recoil feel softer on your shoulder.
- How does it feel on the shoulder?
It is a soft-shooting load. The special internal wad acts like a shock absorber to take the bite out of the recoil.

Why It Stands Out:
Federal All American 20 Gauge #8 Lead provides the consistency and precision needed for success at the range. By combining high-antimony lead with the recoil-reducing Podium wad, Federal has created a shell that patterns perfectly while staying comfortable to shoot all day long. This line is a top-tier choice for any shooter who wants professional-grade performance in a 20 gauge platform. Bulk cases of 250 rounds ship free through Target Sports USA.
