The Winchester Super X 12GA rifled slug delivers consistent accuracy and terminal performance for deer hunters and tactical applications. This 2.75-inch shell combines a 1-ounce rifled slug with proven powder charges for reliable cycling in pump-action and semi-automatic shotguns.
What Makes This Different
Winchester's rifled slug design features deep spiral grooves that impart spin for enhanced stability and accuracy compared to standard foster slugs. The one-ounce projectile maintains energy downrange while the 2.75-inch hull ensures compatibility with standard chambers. Factory crimping and quality control testing deliver consistent velocities shot after shot.
