The Brenneke Classic Magnum delivers exceptional stopping power with its 1 1/8-ounce lead slug design, engineered for hunters demanding maximum terminal performance at extended ranges. This 12-gauge ammunition combines traditional slug construction with modern ballistic engineering to achieve consistent accuracy and devastating energy transfer.
What Makes This Different
Brenneке's Classic Magnum slug features a unique rear-weighted design that maintains stable flight characteristics beyond 100 yards. The solid lead construction with attached felt wad creates a self-stabilizing projectile that outperforms standard foster slugs in both accuracy and penetration. Muzzle velocity reaches approximately 1,520 feet per second, generating over 2,500 foot-pounds of energy at the muzzle.
