NSI (Nobel Sport Italia) American Trap – 12 Gauge – 2.75" – 1 1/8 oz – #8 Shot – 25 Rounds/Box, 10 Boxes/Case (ANS121FSC8) – UPC 837913000472
Count on confidence shot after shot. NSI (Nobel Sport Italia) American Trap 12 Gauge pairs a classic 1 1/8 oz payload of hard #8 lead shot with a smooth, consistent target recipe designed for breaking clays and building better scores. The standard 2.75" (2¾") hull delivers reliable ignition and clean cycling, while hard, round pellets and a well-matched wad system help produce even, forgiving patterns. Packaged 25 rounds per box and available as a 10-box case (250 rounds), Model ANS121FSC8 (often listed as ANS12FSC8) – UPC 837913000472 is a go-to load for trap, skeet, 5-stand, and sporting clays.
Why 1 1/8 oz of #8 for trap? It’s the time-tested “do-everything” target payload—dense pellet counts, solid downrange energy, and pattern uniformity that helps chip edge hits and dust center punches.
Key Benefits
Competition-minded consistency: NSI’s primers, powders, and wad columns are tuned for uniform velocities, contributing to repeatable leads and POI.
Hard #8 lead shot: Maintains pellet roundness for tighter cores and effective fringe pellets—crucial for tough angles and windy days.
Smooth recoil impulse: Balanced target recipe supports steadier mounts, better follow-through, and longer practice sessions.
Reliable function: Designed for dependable ignition and extraction across a wide range of 12-ga target shotguns.
Train and compete with the same load: Case-quantity buying (10 boxes / 250 rounds) keeps your timing and patterns consistent from practice to league night.

Component Quality (Why It Matters)

Tips for Best Results
Pattern your shotgun at 16–35 yards to verify POI and choke pairing (IC, Light Mod, Mod are common starting points).
Record pellet counts in a 30" circle to pick the most forgiving choke for your field or target gun.
Mind the fundamentals: Smooth mount, head on the stock, eyes on the bird, and finish the swing—this load rewards good form.
Stay consistent: Use the same ammo in practice and matches to keep timing and leads identical.
