Skeet shooters and sporting clays regulars want a soft-shooting 12 gauge shell they can buy by the case. This listing is Remington Gun Club 12 gauge 2-3/4 inch 1-1/8 ounce #9 shot target ammo, MPN 20248 (Remington GC12L9), sold as 250 shells. It is a light target load built for close-range clay targets and long practice days where comfort matters. It is equally useful for new shooters learning the basics of mounting and swinging a shotgun.
Remington rates 20248 at 1,145 fps. That moderate velocity keeps recoil manageable through a full round of skeet or a 100 target sporting course. Number 9 shot is the smallest common target size, which produces very dense patterns for close targets such as skeet low house and high house stations and short sporting clays presentations. For longer crossing targets or trap, many shooters step up to #7.5 or #8 shot.
It fits shotguns chambered in 12 gauge with 2-3/4 inch or longer chambers, including the Beretta 686, 687, A300, and A400, Browning Citori, 725, and A5, Remington 870 and 1100, Benelli Montefeltro, Mossberg 500, and Winchester SX4. A common question is whether light target loads cycle semi-auto shotguns. Most modern gas-operated semi-autos cycle 1-1/8 ounce loads at this velocity, though some inertia guns need a break-in period. Another common question is which choke suits #9 shot. Skeet or cylinder chokes are typical for close targets.
Remington 20248 is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA. This listing ships as 10 boxes of 25 shells, 250 total, from one lot, which covers about ten rounds of skeet. Gun Club hulls are popular with reloaders, and buying by the case gives you consistent performance through a full league season. Keep shells dry and out of direct sun in the vehicle so they perform the same all season. Clubs and leagues often buy several cases at once so members shoot the same shells in competition.
