Overview
Built for hunters using smooth bore barrels, this 12-gauge rifled slug is suited to deer and other large game where a slug load is the right tool for the job. The 2.75" shell carries a 1 oz soft lead slug and is listed at 1610 fps, giving it a straightforward setup for field use. It is also a practical option for older firearms that are chambered for this type of ammunition. Each box contains 5 rounds, making it a compact choice for sight-in sessions or a day in the field.

- The 2.75" 1 oz load offers a specific balance of recoil and performance, so hunters should confirm it matches their firearm and intended use.
- As a rifled slug, it is intended for slug hunting applications rather than general-purpose shotgun use.
