Brenneke SL122THD THD 12 Gauge Home Defense Slugs 2.75" 1oz 5rd

The Brenneke SL122THD THD Home Defense slugs deliver maximum stopping power with controlled penetration for residential protection scenarios. This 12-gauge ammunition combines a 1-ounce lead slug with Brenneke's proven wad design to create reliable expansion while limiting over-penetration risks.

What Makes This Different

The THD (Tactical Home Defense) design features a specially engineered lead slug that expands upon impact while the attached wad acts as a brake to reduce penetration depth. Unlike standard foster slugs that can over-penetrate through multiple walls, the THD system balances stopping power with reduced risk to family members in adjacent rooms. The 2.75-inch shell length ensures compatibility with all 12-gauge shotguns while delivering consistent 1,475 fps muzzle velocity.

Key Features

• 1-ounce lead slug with controlled expansion design
• Attached wad system reduces over-penetration risk
• 2.75-inch shell fits all 12-gauge shotguns
• 1,475 fps muzzle velocity for reliable terminal performance
• Low-flash powder reduces night vision disruption
• Consistent accuracy within 50 yards for home defense distances
• German-engineered quality with rigorous testing standards

Field testing demonstrates reliable expansion at typical home defense ranges of 7-25 yards. The slug maintains accuracy sufficient for center mass hits while the wad system helps prevent dangerous over-penetration through standard residential construction materials. Law enforcement agencies have adopted similar Brenneke designs for urban environments where collateral damage concerns are paramount.
