Twenty gauge shooters who spend weekends at the skeet field or sporting clays course need a dependable target load by the case. This listing is Remington Gun Club 20 gauge 2-3/4 inch 7/8 ounce #8 shot target ammo, MPN 20235, sold as 250 shells. It is well suited to youth shooters, smaller-framed adults, and anyone who prefers the lighter recoil of a 20.
Remington rates this load at 1,200 fps. A 7/8 ounce payload of #8 shot is the standard 20 gauge target recipe, giving dense patterns at typical skeet and trap distances. Gun Club loads are built for clay target shooting, offering consistent performance at a practical price per box. The lighter payload and moderate velocity keep recoil mild through long rounds. The same shot size also works on doves and other small upland birds where lead shot is legal.
It fits shotguns chambered in 20 gauge with 2-3/4 inch or longer chambers, including the Beretta A300 and 686, Browning Citori and A5, Benelli Montefeltro, Remington 870 and 1100, Mossberg 500 Bantam, and CZ over and unders. A common question is whether 20 gauge shells can be used in a 12 gauge. Never. A 20 gauge shell can slide down a 12 gauge barrel and cause a catastrophic failure if a 12 is loaded behind it, so keep gauges separated. Another common question is which choke suits #8 shot for skeet. Skeet or improved cylinder chokes are typical for close targets.
Remington 20235 is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA. This listing ships as 10 boxes of 25 shells, 250 total, from one lot, so the pattern and recoil you are used to stay the same through a whole season of practice and leagues. Gun club members often split a case to keep their own costs down.
