Ballistics & Technology: the science of performance

Advanced ballistics is the core of every Pegoraro Sport cartridge. Our commitment to excellence starts in our internal laboratory, where every new loading is subjected to rigorous testing to ensure the perfect balance between internal and external ballistics. By measuring combustion pressures and initial velocities with state-of-the-art chronographs and pressure barrels, we can guarantee that every shell provides the exact performance required for its specific discipline. This scientific approach allows us to achieve unmatched consistency across different production lots.

The selection of components is where technology meets experience. We collaborate with the best European manufacturers to source high-grade powders that are chemically stable across a wide range of temperatures. Our focus on "pattern consistency" is achieved through the careful pairing of specialized wads and premium shot. Whether it is our competition line or our hunting loads, the goal is always to minimize shot deformation and maximize energy transfer, ensuring a lethal and precise impact at target distance.

Innovation at Pegoraro Sport also means constant evolution. Our technical team continuously analyzes the behavior of new materials and chemical compositions to push the limits of what a shotgun shell can achieve. We don't just follow industry standards; we strive to set new benchmarks for safety and reliability. Every component, from the primer to the crimp, is optimized to reduce recoil and improve the shooter's experience, providing a "soft" feel without compromising on speed or power.

Since 1970, we have integrated these technological advancements into our artisanal production process. This unique combination of modern ballistic science and traditional hand-checked quality control ensures that when you choose Pegoraro Sport, you are using one of the most technologically advanced cartridges on the market. Our legacy is built on the precision of our data and the success of our shooters in the field and at the range.
