Why Competitive Shooters Choose Star Team EVO HV
High velocity, decisive breaks: At 1300 fps, this load flattens stubborn edge hits and extends your effective envelope on windy days.
1-1/8 oz #8 shot sweet spot: Balances pellet count and energy for uniform clay-smashing patterns across trap, skeet, and sporting clays.
Reliable ignition & smooth cycling: Quality primers and progressive propellants promote consistent velocities and dependable function in semi-autos and O/Us.

Training to tournament: Clean, repeatable performance you can trust for weekly leagues, practice sessions, or registered events.
Ideal Use Cases
Trap (16-yard & handicap): #8 shot and HV speed deliver hard breaks—especially useful when targets push back.
Skeet: Fast, lively birds demand a quick, consistent load for doubles and crossers.
Sporting Clays & 5-Stand: A versatile recipe that handles everything from close teals to quartering-away midis.
Performance You Can Feel
Crisp, consistent recoil impulse that tracks well through second shots.
Confidence-inspiring patterns that stay uniform across common choke constrictions.
Designed for repetition, helping you maintain rhythm during long practice strings and tournament rounds.
Best Practices
Pattern your gun: Confirm results with your preferred chokes (IC, LM, Mod, etc.) to lock in leads for your venues.
Rotate lot numbers: For major events, stock enough of the same lot for consistent results throughout a tournament.
Store properly: Keep shotshells cool and dry to preserve primer and powder performance.
