The Winchester Super X 12 Gauge 3" rifled slug ammunition delivers consistent accuracy and knockdown power for deer hunting and tactical applications. This premium shotgun ammunition features a 1-ounce rifled slug optimized for smooth bore barrels, providing reliable expansion and deep penetration on medium to large game.
What Makes This Different
Winchester's rifled slug design incorporates precision-engineered rifling that stabilizes the projectile in flight, delivering superior accuracy compared to standard foster slugs. The 3-inch magnum shell generates higher velocities and energy transfer, making it effective at extended ranges up to 100 yards. This ammunition consistently groups within 3 inches at 50 yards when fired from quality shotguns with proper sighting systems.
Key Features
- 1-ounce rifled slug with hollow point design for controlled expansion
- 3-inch magnum shell length for increased powder capacity and velocity
- Lead projectile with precision rifling for enhanced accuracy
- High-quality brass head construction for reliable extraction
- Consistent powder charge for uniform ballistic performance
- Compatible with all 12-gauge shotguns chambered for 3-inch shells
- 15 rounds per box packaging for convenient range sessions
Field testing demonstrates effective performance on whitetail deer, wild boar, and other medium game at ranges from 25 to 100 yards. The rifled slug maintains trajectory stability in crosswinds and delivers consistent point of impact shot after shot. Law enforcement agencies rely on this ammunition for door breaching and barrier penetration applications where maximum stopping power is required.
