Hornady Custom Lite 20 Gauge 2.75" FTX Slug 5rd Box 86233

The Hornady Custom Lite 20 Gauge FTX slug delivers effective terminal performance with significantly reduced felt recoil compared to standard slug loads. This reduced-recoil ammunition maintains accuracy and stopping power while making extended shooting sessions more comfortable for hunters and shooters sensitive to recoil.

What Makes This Different

The FTX (Flex Tip eXpanding) bullet design features a polymer tip that initiates controlled expansion upon impact, creating larger wound channels than traditional foster slugs. Custom Lite loads generate approximately 25% less felt recoil than standard velocity slugs while maintaining flat trajectory and consistent accuracy. The reduced powder charge makes this ammunition ideal for youth hunters, smaller-framed shooters, or anyone seeking effective performance without punishing recoil.
