The Sellier & Bellot Skeet 24 Steel Shot 12/67.5 (MPN: V060352) is lead-free 12-gauge ammunition engineered specifically for clay target disciplines, including Olympic Skeet, standard Skeet, and Sporting Clays. Loaded with a 24-gram payload of 2.29 mm (#8 UK/US) steel pellets inside a 67.5 mm (2⅝”) hull, this cartridge achieves a muzzle velocity (V2) of 420 m/s (1,378 fps). It is designed to deliver consistent, high-velocity patterns at short-to-medium clay target ranges while complying with international competition weight limits and non-toxic ammunition mandates.

Key Features

• Lead-Free Steel Construction: Features non-toxic 2.29 mm steel pellets, enabling full compliance at target grounds, clubs, and wetland-adjacent ranges with strict lead bans.
• Protective Shot Wad: Incorporates an engineered full-containment plastic wad cup that encases the steel shot column to prevent hard pellet contact with shotgun bores and chokes.
• High-Velocity Ballistics: Delivers a muzzle velocity of 420 m/s with a light 24 g charge, balancing fast target lead acquisition with moderate recoil for rapid second-barrel alignment.
• Chamber Versatility: Built in a 67.5 mm case length with a 12 mm brass head, functioning in shotguns chambered for 67.5 mm, 70 mm (2¾”), and longer.
• Compact Transport: Packaged in standard 25-round boxes weighing approximately 0.96 kg with box dimensions of 10 cm (W) × 6 cm (H) × 11 cm (D).

Who is the S&B Sellier & Bellot Skeet 24 Steel Shot Ammo 25 Rd for?

• Competitive skeet and sporting clays shooters at lead-restricted ranges — requires compliant lead-free 12-gauge skeet ammunition that meets international competition limits via a 24-gram payload and achieves a muzzle velocity of 420 m/s for clean breaks across standard 10 to 25-metre target presentations.
• Target shooters operating in conservation or wetland-adjacent shotgun clubs — requires non-toxic 12-gauge cartridges utilizing 2.29 mm steel pellets in a protective plastic wad that seats securely in 67.5 mm or longer chambers without violating environmental ground regulations.

Less suitable for: Target shooting distances exceeding 30 metres or medium-to-large waterfowl hunting applications; for targets beyond 30 metres, choose a trap load with larger 2.54 mm (#7 or #7.5) shot, and for waterfowl hunting, switch to a heavy field load firing #2 to #4 steel pellets in a 32 g to 36 g payload. This cartridge is also incompatible with shotgun chambers shorter than 67.5 mm.
