Details
If circumstances ever require you to defend your home with a 12 Gauge shotgun, then you’ll have enough things to worry about without counting heavy recoil among them. You don’t want sharp muzzle rise that throws your aim far off target. That means you want this Federal Premium Law Enforcement Tactical ammo, which is very much for sale to the general public.
This shell’s reduced recoil isn’t a magic trick. Its muzzle velocity is just average at 1,300 fps, and its slug falls on the lighter end of the weight spectrum at 1 ounce. We’re not saying this ammo doesn’t kick at all. It just kicks lighter than a lot of the fiery high-powered hunting shells on the market.
The Hydra-Shok slug is more than just capable of taking down the threat. It is specifically designed for that purpose, and is outfitted with a hollow point nose cavity that initiates terminal expansion the instant it sinks into soft tissue. The slug’s 1,300 fps muzzle velocity (which Federal recorded using a 30” test barrel) also gives the slug enough energy to ethically harvest a whitetail deer at 50 yards, which only speaks further to its potential for personal defense.

Q: Please advise is this shotgun ammo for use with a smooth bore or a rifled barrel?
Posted On: 1/13/2013 By: Gordon
A: This Federal shotgun ammo is designed to be used in smooth bore barrels as found in most shotguns. If your shotgun includes a rifled barrel, a sabot slug will deliver the most accuracy from your shotgun.
