The Brenneke SL162CLM Classic Magnum delivers exceptional stopping power and penetration for 16-gauge hunters pursuing large game. This premium slug ammunition combines German engineering with proven ballistic performance to ensure clean, ethical harvests at extended ranges.
What Makes This Different
Brennneke's Classic Magnum slugs feature a unique attached wad system that maintains slug stability throughout flight, delivering superior accuracy compared to traditional foster-style slugs. The solid lead construction with ribbed design creates devastating wound channels while the felt wad remains attached to prevent separation that can affect trajectory. This design consistently produces tighter groups at 100 yards than conventional slugs.
Key Features
- 1-ounce solid lead slug with ribbed profile for maximum energy transfer
- Attached felt wad system prevents separation and maintains flight stability
- 2.75-inch shell length fits standard 16-gauge chambers
- High-velocity loading generates 1,476 fps muzzle velocity
- German-manufactured brass-plated steel cases ensure reliable extraction
- Proven penetration capabilities for medium to large game hunting

Field testing demonstrates the Classic Magnum's effectiveness on deer, black bear, and wild boar at ranges extending to 75 yards. The slug maintains energy downrange while the ribbed design creates controlled expansion upon impact. Weather-resistant primer sealing protects against moisture in humid hunting conditions, ensuring reliable ignition when the shot opportunity presents itself.
