It’s only natural that the proven performance of Hornady’s SST bullet enter the world of shotgun hunting. This slug allows you to bring unheard of accuracy and terminal performance to slug-only areas. The super-accurate FTX® bullet delivers sub-2 in. groups at 100 yards; and the flattest trajectory on the market. Designed for use in fully rifled barrels only.
I have 3 12-gauge deer guns. One is an old Marlin Bolt action, rifled barrel that takes a 2-round magazine. Bought 3 boxes of these and others. Fired 3 rounds at 100 yards but only had one large hole, about 1" or so. Tried it again, one hole, shooting from a lead sled. They are expensive so I only fired the 6 through the gun after it was sighted in. Lost my hunting lease and had to hunt on public land, poor area to hunt, and shotgun only. Went anyway. An hour into the hunt saw a buck 400 yards away. Sat and waited, he ran down a tree line until about 50 yards and zap, one round one deer. They should pay me for my reviews, I can honestly say these are the most amazing shotgun rounds I have ever seen. I cast and reload 12 gauge slugs, but hunt with these. Cannot give bad rating, except for cost. No way they should cost this much to make and retail, that said, I bought them and still will buy a few.
