RIO Star Team EVO 12 Gauge #8 1 oz 1250 FPS STT288 - 250 Rounds
RIO Star Team EVO STT288 is a fast, dependable 12 Gauge target load made for shooters who want consistent clay-breaking performance without moving to a heavier 1-1/8 oz payload. Each 2-3/4" shell is loaded with 1 oz of #8 shot and produces a muzzle velocity of 1250 FPS.
