Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Federal Premium High Over All different from standard target loads?
The High Over All load sets itself apart with its exclusive Podium wad, which produces significantly more consistent shot patterns than conventional wads. Combined with hard, high-antimony lead pellets that resist deformation in the barrel, and a tapered one-piece hull designed for repeated reloading, this load delivers a level of performance and longevity that standard budget target loads simply cannot match.
Is #8 shot the right choice for trap, skeet, and sporting clays?
#8 shot is one of the most popular and widely accepted shot sizes for clay target sports, particularly skeet and close-range sporting clays stations. Its smaller pellet size means a higher pellet count per ounce, producing denser patterns that excel at breaking clay birds consistently. For longer-range trap shooting, some competitors may prefer #7.5 shot, but #8 remains a highly effective and commonly used choice across all three disciplines.
How many times can I reload the High Over All hulls?
Federal designed the High Over All hull specifically with reloaders in mind. The solid brass head, integral base wad, and tapered one-piece plastic hull construction allow these shells to withstand more reload cycles than standard hulls — many competitive reloaders report getting eight or more reloads per hull with proper technique and compatible reloading components. Results will vary depending on your reloading press, powder charge, and crimping method.
