Hornady American Whitetail 12 Gauge 2-3/4” 1oz Rifled Slug – 5rd Box

Description

Hornady built this slug specifically for smoothbore deer guns. The 1-ounce (438-grain) Foster-style rifled slug features a hollow point nose with a serrated profile that initiates rapid expansion on impact, while the tough lead-alloy core retains weight for deep penetration. At 1,600 fps and 2,484 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, this is a standard-velocity load that balances effective terminal performance with manageable recoil in the 2-3/4” shell length.

The rifled bearing surfaces on the slug body impart stabilizing spin as it exits the smoothbore barrel, promoting consistent flight and accuracy. Loaded with non-corrosive primers and a roll crimp. Part of Hornady’s American Whitetail product family, which is purpose-built for deer hunters.
