Product Description
Federal Premium 12 Gauge 2.75" Rifled Slug 5-Round Box
Federal Premium Rifled Slugs step up from the PowerShok line with a more refined lead formulation and tighter dimensional tolerances that translate to improved accuracy from a smoothbore or rifled barrel. The one-ounce hollow-base Foster slug exits at 1,600 fps and is capable of sub-4-inch groups at 50 yards from a fixed-breech single-shot or bolt-action shotgun, performance that surprises many shooters accustomed to thinking of slug guns as crude. The hollow-base design obturates into the bore, effectively sealing gas blow-by and providing a more consistent pressure curve shot to shot — the practical result is reduced velocity variation and tighter groups compared to solid-base competitor slugs. This load is a proven deer harvester at ranges where shot placement discipline matters more than ballistic coefficient, and the Premium brass-head hull tolerates multiple reloads for handloaders who push their shotshell presses hard in deer season. If you run a standard smooth-bore deer gun, this is the load to start with before spending money on a rifled barrel and sabot system.

Forget what you think you know about smoothbore slug gun accuracy. The Federal Premium(R) TruBall(R) is the most consistent smoothbore slug on the market, capable of groups as tight as 1.4 inch at 50 yards. The TruBall system locks the components together centering and pushing the rifled slug out of the barrel. This promotes clean separation of components after muzzle exit to ensure the best accuracy.
