For decades, world-class competitive trap, skeet and sporting clays shooters have proved highly successful on the field with Federal Premium Gold Medal shotshells. For 2017, the ammo company has improved its design with the new Gold Medal Grand, which produce less felt recoil, more reliable ignition, improved shot hardness and excellent reloadability. 

Features 
• Two-piece wad utilizes SoftCell technology to decrease perceived recoil and produce more uniform patterns than one-piece designs
• Rigid PrimerLock head improves primer sensitivity, ensuring proper ignition in the event of a light hit
• Lead shot is engineered for the optimum blend of hardness and density for even patterns and maximum downrange power
• Integral base wad maximizes reloadability
