The Federal Top Gun Paper Wad is a 12 gauge target load built for clay shooters who want consistent, reliable performance without unnecessary plastic waste. Loaded with a 1 1/8 oz lead shot payload moving at 1200 fps, these rounds deliver the power and patterns you need at the trap, skeet, or sporting clays course. The paper wad design—a Federal exclusive—replaces traditional plastic components with cellulose-based filler and a paper gas-sealing over-powder wad, giving you a cleaner, more environmentally conscious round that performs just as reliably as it patterns.
If you run a high volume of shells through your gun during league nights or practice sessions, the Top Gun Paper Wad offers a sensible balance of affordability and dependability. The 7.5 shot size is the bread-and-butter load for clay games, and Federal's select clean-burning propellant and consistent reliable primer keep your shooting day productive and your gun cleaner. You get 25 rounds per box, so these are practical for both casual shooters stocking up and serious competitors building supply.
Federal ammunition has earned its reputation through decades of service in the field and on the range, and the Top Gun line proves that proven performance doesn't require trendy marketing or premium pricing. These shells will cycle reliably through most 12 gauge shotguns and reward good shooting with tight, even patterns downrange.
| Gauge | 12 |
| Shell Length | 2 3/4 inch (70 mm) |
| Shot Size | 7.5 |
| Shot Charge | 1 1/8 oz |
| Muzzle Velocity | 1200 fps |
| Payload Pellets | 394 |
| Density | 8 g/cc |
| Wad Type | Paper wad with cellulose-based filler |
| Package Quantity | 25 rounds |
These are 12 gauge shells with a 2 3/4 inch length. They will chamber in any standard 12 gauge shotgun rated for 2 3/4 inch shells. If your shotgun accepts longer magnum shells (3 inch or 3 1/2 inch), you can still use these, but always verify your gun's chamber specifications in the manual or with the manufacturer.
Yes. The 1 1/8 oz lead payload and 7.5 shot size are a classic combination for trap, skeet, and sporting clays. The 1200 fps velocity is standard power for target loads, and Federal's primer and propellant are selected for the consistent, clean performance required in competitive and recreational clay games.
The Top Gun Paper Wad uses a paper gas-sealing over-powder wad and cellulose-based filler in place of plastic components. This design reduces plastic waste in the environment and shot pattern while maintaining reliable, consistent ignition and performance. Federal's paper wad system is their proprietary approach to a more eco-conscious target load.
With a 1 1/8 oz charge of 7.5 lead shot, each shell contains approximately 394 individual lead pellets. This helps you understand the shot density and pattern density you'll achieve downrange—more pellets in the pattern generally mean tighter, more consistent clay-breaking performance at typical shooting distances.
