Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Winchester Super-Target a good choice for beginner clay shooters?
Absolutely. The Super-Target's hinged wad is specifically engineered to reduce felt recoil, making it one of the friendliest 20 gauge target loads for new or younger shooters. The lighter 7/8 oz. payload and moderate velocity keep muzzle rise manageable while still producing the pattern density needed to consistently break clay targets at typical sporting clays, trap, and skeet distances.
What type of choke should I use with #8 shot for clay target shooting?
For most clay disciplines, an Improved Cylinder or Light Modified choke works well with #8 shot at close to mid-range presentations. Skeet shooters often favor a Skeet or Improved Cylinder choke, while trap shooters may prefer a Modified or Improved Modified choke depending on yardage. Always consult your shotgun's manual and use only chokes rated for the ammunition you're shooting.
How does the Winchester Super-Target differ from the Winchester AA target load?
The Winchester AA is Winchester's premium target shell, featuring a reloadable high-brass hull and tighter quality-control tolerances preferred by competitive shooters who reload their hulls. The Super-Target is Winchester's value-tier target line — offering excellent consistency and clean-burning performance at a more accessible price point, making it ideal for high-volume practice sessions where cost-per-round matters.
