Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Federal Top Gun Sporting different from standard target loads?
Federal Top Gun Sporting shells are purpose-built for sporting clays and skeet, featuring harder pellets than economy target loads to maintain shape through the barrel and deliver tighter, more consistent downrange patterns. The load is also tuned to balance higher velocity — which helps shorten leads on crossing targets — with reduced felt recoil, making it easier to stay on rhythm through long shooting sequences.
Will these shells cycle reliably in a 20-gauge semi-automatic shotgun?
Federal Top Gun Sporting loads are designed to generate sufficient gas pressure to reliably cycle most modern 20-gauge semi-automatic shotguns. However, cycling performance can vary depending on the specific action, choke, and gas system of your firearm. If you're using a light-action or inertia-driven semi-auto, it's recommended to verify function with a few rounds before committing to a full case for competition.
What choke constriction is recommended for #8 shot on the sporting clays course?
For sporting clays with #8 shot, an Improved Cylinder or Light Modified choke is generally preferred for close to mid-range stations, while a Modified choke works well for longer crossing birds. Avoid using Full choke with hard shot loads, as it can increase pressure and potentially damage older choke tubes not rated for hard pellets. Always consult your shotgun manufacturer's choke recommendations before use.
