Description
The ATI 240379 12 GA 1 oz Target Shells are budget-friendly practice shells from American Tactical (ATI), loaded with 1 ounce of #7.5 lead shot in a standard 2-3/4 inch 12 gauge hull. They are built for high-volume range days, from trap and skeet to backyard clays. Each box holds 25 rounds and the product ships 10 boxes to a case.
What You Get With the ATI 240379 12 GA 1 oz Target Shells
A 1 ounce payload is the sweet spot for most clay shooting. It carries enough pellets for solid breaks at typical trap and skeet distances while producing noticeably less recoil than heavier 1-1/8 ounce loads. Over a 100 round afternoon, that difference shows up in your shoulder and your scores.
The 7.5 shot size is the most common choice for 12 gauge target shells. It balances pellet count for dense patterns against enough pellet energy to break targets cleanly out to the longer stations. Many shooters use 7.5 for trap and 8 or 9 for close skeet stations.
The standard 2-3/4 inch hull fits every modern 12 gauge, including those with 3 inch and 3-1/2 inch chambers.
Using the ATI 240379 12 GA 1 oz Target Shells at the Range
Light target loads can occasionally struggle to cycle some gas or inertia semi-automatic shotguns, especially new guns that are not yet broken in. Pump and break-action shotguns will run them without issue. If you shoot a semi-auto, try a box before buying a case.
For clay target ammo, choke choice matters more than small differences between shell brands. Improved cylinder or skeet chokes suit close skeet targets, while modified or improved modified is common for trap. Patterning a few shells at 25 yards will show you how the load prints from your barrel.
These are lead shot loads. Most private ranges and clubs allow lead, but some public shooting areas and wetlands require non-toxic shot, so check the rules where you shoot. Always wear eye and ear protection.

Why Choose the ATI 240379 12 GA 1 oz Target Shells
The main appeal is value. Clay shooting burns through shells quickly, and an affordable 1 ounce 7.5 load keeps the cost of practice under control for new shooters, league regulars and anyone teaching a family member to shoot.
Budget shells are not premium competition loads. Serious trap and sporting clays competitors may prefer premium hulls with more consistent velocity and harder shot for the best patterns at long range. For practice and casual rounds, trap and skeet loads like these are hard to beat on price.
