The Federal Premium Grand Slam PFCX139F5 delivers maximum knockdown power for waterfowl and upland game hunting with its 3.5-inch magnum load and premium copper-plated shot. This 12-gauge ammunition combines Federal's advanced wad technology with precisely measured 2-ounce payloads to extend effective range and improve pattern density.
What Makes This Different
Federal's Grand Slam series features copper-plated shot that maintains pellet roundness and reduces deformation during barrel travel, resulting in tighter patterns and deeper penetration compared to standard lead shot. The buffered shot column minimizes pellet contact and flyer pellets, while the specialized wad design provides consistent shot release for improved downrange performance. Independent testing shows 15-20% tighter patterns at 40 yards versus comparable non-plated loads.Key Features
