Frequently Asked Questions
What clay target disciplines is the Federal Premium High Over All best suited for?
The Federal Premium High Over All is designed specifically for competitive clay target shooting, including trap, skeet, and sporting clays. The #8 shot size and 1 oz payload are among the most popular choices across all three disciplines, providing dense, consistent patterns ideal for breaking targets at typical competition distances. Whether you're shooting registered ATA trap events or a local sporting clays course, this load is built to perform at the highest level.
How does the Podium wad improve patterns compared to standard wads?
Federal's exclusive Podium wad is a one-piece design engineered to provide uniform pellet acceleration and more consistent wad separation after leaving the muzzle. This reduces pellet deformation during the shot cycle and promotes tighter, more repeatable patterns at competition distances. Combined with the hard, high-antimony lead shot that resists in-bore deformation, the result is a noticeably more uniform pattern — a critical advantage when breaking challenging targets.
Are these hulls suitable for reloading, and how many times can they be reloaded?
Yes — the Federal Premium High Over All hull is specifically engineered with reloaders in mind. The tapered, single-piece plastic hull and integral base wad are designed to withstand multiple reloading cycles, and the solid brass head provides consistent resizing. Federal states these hulls deliver more reloads per shell than comparable competition loads, making them an excellent value for high-volume shooters who reload their own ammunition.
