The competitive shooter demands consistency, clean patterns, and a load that behaves predictably under pressure. Target loads that deliver repeatable shot-to-shot performance give shooters the confidence to focus on fundamentals — mount, follow-through and target acquisition — rather than compensating for ammunition variance.

FIOCCHI EXACTA is Fiocchi’s premium target load engineered for competition. Built from a 50-year tradition supporting trap, skeet, sporting clays, FITASC and Compak, this “Purple” Target Load is the offspring of decades of development and offers the kind of ballistic character competitors expect. The load description even calls it an “explosive cocktail” — a nod to its energetic, consistent performance on the range. Shop this product

Performance and handling

The Purple Target Load is optimized for competition breakaways: consistent velocity, reliable shot-to-shot ignition and a predictable recoil impulse that helps maintain sight picture and follow-through.

Pricing is affordable for serious practice and match use at $12.99 per box, making it practical to train with the same load used on match day. View product details and pricing
