Team Winchester and Team White Flyer compete with Winchester AA® target shotshells. The AA® loads use lead shot alloyed with antimony making them the hardest hitting loads on the market. Combined with AA® wad technology and best-in-class primer and powder, AA® shotshells provide the most consistent patterns, shot after shot making it the Choice of Champions for all clay shooting disciplines.
New for 2026, the AA® Super Spreader™ line has expanded to include a 12 gauge offering with a 1 oz payload. Winchester AA Super Spreader loads utilize a hinged wad and specialized shot column that allows for a rapid but uniform spread once the pellets exit the barrel. Shooters will experience 70% larger patterns at 20 yards versus standard loads.
