Why Choose Sterling Competition Series Skeet Ammunition?
Sterling Competition Series Skeet loads are developed with input from competitive shooters to meet the demanding requirements of skeet shooting. The combination of #9.5 shot and a light 7/8 oz payload produces dense, even patterns at the short distances typical in skeet while generating noticeably lower recoil than standard target loads. This allows shooters to maintain better control, faster follow-up shots, and reduced fatigue during long practice sessions or competitions. The high-quality components and consistent manufacturing standards ensure reliable ignition and uniform velocities from shot to shot, giving competitors the confidence they need when every target counts.

Performance and Build Quality
The Sterling Competition Series Skeet ammunition is manufactured to strict quality standards to deliver consistent results on the skeet field. The #9.5 shot size creates a dense cloud of pellets that increases the probability of breaking fast-moving clay targets at typical skeet distances. The reduced 7/8 ounce payload significantly lowers felt recoil compared to standard 1 oz or 1-1/8 oz loads, allowing shooters to stay on target longer and recover faster between shots. Sterling uses high-quality components, including reliable primers and clean-burning powder, to ensure smooth operation in a wide variety of 12 gauge shotguns. Whether you’re a competitive skeet shooter or a recreational clay target enthusiast, this ammunition provides the performance and value needed for serious target shooting.
