Shooting sporting clays is fun, but you need the best shells for the job. In this article we will be talking about Federal engineered High Over All (Winchester AA Super Sport), and Gordon clay firing shells. There are many other types available, so make sure you check each one for your specific application. We also highlight the pros and cons of each.
Clay shooting shells at high velocity
There are some benefits to using high velocity clay shooting guns, but there are also some drawbacks. These shells are more recoil-sensitive, which can make aiming difficult. Second, if the target is launched at a shallow angle, it can be more difficult to collimate on. These disadvantages are overcome by the high velocity clay firing shells.
A shotshell which can damage sporting clays has been called the "competitive edge". A composite of high-tech components and state-of-the-art technology, the COMPETITIVE EDGE is able to achieve a high degree of recoil reduction. The shell is very precise, which results in higher scores. This shotshell is also a great choice for those with limited range.
Gordon clay shooting shells
Gordon developed its revolutionary hull cartridges in the 1990s. These have been well-received by hunters as well as shooters. The Gordon hull is equipped with a shock-absorbing bottom wad. This seals the shell casing, and anchors the endplug tube. This wadding serves as primer seating. The solid structure of Gordon hull absorbs recoil and results in flatter shot patterns and better penetration.
The Sporting 100 was originally introduced to replace the Pro Sport. It is now the Graphite model and fully optimized for clay loads in the mid-range. Eley's Superb shotshells once came only in plastic, but they are now also available as fibre wads. These shells are ideal for competition work because they come in a wide range of sizes and offer a lot of performance. They're also not cheap.
Winchester AA Super Sport
Winchester AA Super Sport shells for shooting sporting clays are specifically designed for busting clay birds at longer ranges. These shells can carry heavier loads and contain more powder. In addition to these high-quality components, AA Target loads are loaded with copper-plated shot to reduce deformation and increase pattern performance. These loads are great for hunting both upland game and clay birds at longer ranges.
Winchester's AA target shotshells for trap, sporting clays, and skeet shooting have set the standards in consistency, accuracy, quality, and performance. Because of their consistent shell load, they are the top choice for trap, sporting clays and skeet shooters. AA shotshells weigh 1-1/8 ounces and are perfect for high-volume shooting. Winchester AA shotshells are 100% lead-free, unlike other brands' lead-free cartridges.

How to build a Deer Blind
A deer-blind is a type de hunting device used to hide game animals like deer, elk, etc. The blind consists of a small enclosure, usually made of canvas or wood and often covered with branches and leaves. The hunter hides in the enclosure and waits to see if the animal passes. For hunting at night, deer blinds are often used.
There are many options for deer blinds. Some are portable, while others are permanently fixed. They are typically constructed out of materials like plywood, cardboard, plastic, canvas, or metal.
The most common type of deer blinds is box blinds (also known as box stands). These blinds consist of a box made of wood with walls and a roof. Because they are easy-to-assemble and transport, boxes are very popular.
A tree stand is another form of deer blind. Tree stands are natural looking so that it is not obvious they exist. Most tree stands are permanently attached with trees.
Ground blinds, similar to tree-stands but built into the ground, are another option. Ground blinds are usually camouflaged in dirt, rocks or sand. Ground blinds also sometimes go by the name "ground boxes".
There are several ways to hunt with deer blinds. One option is to just wait for the animal and then stand still. You can also try moving around to scare away the animal. This method can be used if you are unable to remain still and don't move much. This could lead the animal to think you're a predator and run off.
First, find the right spot to place a deer blind. The best place to use a deer blind is one where the wind will not blow your scent towards it. Avoid areas where people often hike.
Also, ensure you understand how to set up a deer blind. The last thing you want is for the animal see you and run.
