FEDERAL 12 GA - 2.75" - #9 - 1 1/8 OZ - 25 RDS/BOX
The Federal Premium High Over All 12 Gauge 2.75" #9 shotshell is the competition-grade load trusted by elite trap, skeet, and sporting clays shooters who demand the most consistent patterns and the longest hull life on the market.
- Hard, high-antimony lead pellets resist deformation for maximum downrange energy
- All-new Podium wad delivers tighter, more consistent shot patterns every time
- 1 1/8 oz of #9 shot optimized for close-range clay target presentations
- Solid brass head and tapered one-piece hull engineered for multiple reloads
- Eight-segment crimp ensures reliable, uniform closure on every shell
- 2.75" shell fits all standard 12-gauge competition and field shotguns
Who This Is For
This load is purpose-built for serious competitive shooters pursuing top finishes in ATA trap, skeet, and NSCA sporting clays events. If you reload your own hulls and won't settle for inconsistent patterns on the scorecard, Federal Premium High Over All is the round your shell bags should be filled with. It's equally at home for recreational clay busters who want a premium edge without switching platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is #9 shot the preferred size for skeet and sporting clays at close ranges?
#9 shot produces a higher pellet count per ounce compared to larger shot sizes, which creates a denser pattern ideal for breaking clay targets within 25–40 yards. The smaller pellets deliver enough energy to shatter targets while keeping recoil manageable during a long day of competition shooting. For longer-range stations or trap shooting where targets are farther out, some shooters prefer #8 or #8.5, but #9 remains the top choice for many skeet events.
How many times can I reload the Federal Premium High Over All hull?
The HOA hull is specifically engineered for reloading longevity. Thanks to its solid brass head, tapered single-piece plastic hull, and integral base wad, most reloaders report reliably getting 6–10 or more reloads per hull under normal reloading practices. Results will vary depending on your reloading equipment, crimp consistency, and how carefully you inspect hulls before each reload cycle.
Is this shotshell compatible with my over-under or semi-automatic competition shotgun?
Yes — Federal Premium High Over All shells are loaded to standard 2.75" 12-gauge specifications, making them compatible with virtually all modern 12-gauge shotguns including over-under, side-by-side, semi-automatic, and pump-action platforms. Always verify that your specific firearm is rated for the velocity and dram equivalent of the load you're using, and consult your owner's manual if you have any questions about ammunition compatibility.
