B&P Mach 12 Gauge Ammo 2 3/4 1 oz #8 Shot - 12B1F2L8

The B&P Mach is a 12 gauge target shotshell loaded with 1 oz of high-antimony lead #8 shot at 1250 fps. Built around B&P's Gordon System hull, this 2 3/4" shell is designed for competitive clay shooting where consistent recoil and reliable patterns are the priority. The powder charge is formulated for clean burning, keeping actions running through extended range sessions. This load is packaged in cases of 250 rounds, with 12 gauge bulk ammo case orders shipping free through Target Sports USA.

Features and Specifications:

• 1 oz #8 Lead Shot: The standard competition payload for clay target disciplines, delivering the pellet density needed for consistent breaks at typical presentation distances.
• 1250 fps Velocity: This velocity level supports reliable pattern performance across trap, skeet, and sporting clays applications.
• Gordon System Hull: B&P's proprietary hull construction is engineered to reduce felt recoil, supporting consistent performance across high round count sessions.
• High-Antimony Lead White Shot: Pellets contain elevated antimony content to help maintain pellet shape during firing, contributing to tighter, more uniform patterns.
• Clean-Burning B&P Powder: The powder formulation is designed to minimize fouling while maintaining consistent velocities throughout a shooting session.
• 2 3/4" Standard Chamber Compatibility: This shell is compatible with pump-action, semi-automatic, and over-under 12 gauge shotguns chambered for 2 3/4" or 3" shells.

Deep Dive

Overview

This 12 gauge ammo is intended for competitive clay target shooting, including trap, skeet, and sporting clays. The Mach line is built for shooters who need a shell that performs consistently across a full day at the range. The #8 shot size is the standard choice for most clay disciplines, particularly at closer presentation distances where pattern density is the priority. Shooters looking for a premium 12 gauge target load with manageable recoil will find the Mach a practical fit for both competition and practice.

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 company develops its own powder formulations, maintaining direct control over burn rate and fouling characteristics across its product lines. The Mach line sits at the top of the B&P target shotshell catalog, developed for competitive shooters who require a shell built to perform under the demands of registered competition. That focus on component-level engineering has been central to the B&P brand throughout its history.

Common Questions and FAQs

• What clay target disciplines is this load suited for?
  The Mach 1 oz #8 load is suited for trap, skeet, and sporting clays. The #8 shot size works well at skeet and closer sporting clays presentations where pattern density is the priority.
• What does the Gordon System hull do?
  The Gordon System hull is engineered to absorb recoil at the base of the shell, reducing felt recoil compared to a standard hull construction. This is a practical advantage for shooters running high round counts in a single session.
• Will this load cycle in semi-automatic shotguns?
  Yes. At 1250 fps with a 1 oz payload, this load falls within the standard cycling range for most 12 gauge competition semi-automatics.
• Why does B&P use high-antimony shot?
  Higher antimony content hardens the lead pellets, helping them maintain their shape through the choke. This supports tighter patterns compared to softer shot that deforms during setback.
• How is this load packaged?
  The B&P Mach is packaged in cases of 250 rounds, all 12 gauge bulk ammo is shipped free through Target Sports USA

The 'Round Up'

Perfect Fit for:

• Target Shooting

Why It Stands Out:

The B&P Mach 12 Gauge 1 oz #8 Shot is a competition-focused target load built for clay shooting sports. The Gordon System hull, high-antimony shot, and clean-burning powder deliver consistent patterns with manageable recoil across high round counts. Packaged in cases of 250, it is a practical option for competitors who need a premium 12 gauge target load built to perform at the range.
