Deep Dive
Overview
Winchester Super-X 12 Gauge Ammunition is built for upland hunters who value consistent performance and proven reliability. Loaded with #8 lead shot, this round is ideal for targeting fast-moving bird game such as doves, quail, and grouse. This ammunition offers a well-balanced spread that ensures clean, effective hits.

Known for its dependable patterning and field-proven results, Super-X is a trusted companion for any upland hunt.
History and Development
Winchester has long been a trusted name in American ammunition, known for producing reliable and high-performing products for hunters and sport shooters alike. The Super-X line was developed to give hunters dependable performance in the field, with consistent patterns, solid knockdown power, and smooth functionality across a variety of shotguns.
Over the years, the Super-X brand has built a strong reputation among upland game hunters for its quality components and field-tested reliability. This 12 Gauge #8 Shot offering carries forward that tradition, delivering the performance hunters expect when every shot counts.
