Customer Reviews for Hornady Custom Lite Slug 12GA 30 gr 2 3/4" FTX 5rd box

Mean looking Slugs. Recoil was pretty intense out of a ATI Nomad 12 guage. Shells didn't extract out of the Nomad. I'm not sure why. Unfortunate though cause they are very powerful Slugs.

Product was in stock and delivered to my doorstep within 1 week. Thank you for stocking this hard to find in my area ammo!

I bought these by accident, when the description of the Hornady SST slugs was deceiving and confusing. See description below: It lists the velocity at 1,370 which is lower than the SST FTX Lite and also discusses buckshot in a Sabot slug. I needed the highest velocity sabot slug possible to match with my new Nikon Scope I purchased at the same time. I'm sure these slugs are awesome, but they won't match the specific bullet drop of the scope. So I contacted Buds and was told they do not allows returns. I wouldn't of purchased these if the description was clear on their website. No I have $27 worth of shells that are of no use to me.
SST Sabot shotgun slugs take the proven performance of the super accurate SST bullet and transforms it into your favorite rifled barrel slug gun that out performs some centerfire rifles. With premium polymer tips and unmatched accuracy the SST sabot slug will fly faster and farther on a flatter trajectory to initiate expansion at all velocities. Top quality, well designed shells are very effective within their range limitations and buckshot delivers a velocity of 1,370 fps with 8 pellets of 00 buckshot.
Like I said, I'm sure these slugs are awesome for the right application, but not for me. It's Bud's policies I am not happy with.

Out of FIVE STARS I would give the Hornady SST's FIVE STARS Last year during hunting season My son using the 12 ga SST's and Benelli M2 dropped a SIKA Cow at a verified range or 235 yds. I verified the range with a Laser Range Finder and pace... He had to elevate to get the hit but it did it's job. He hit it in the neck and the sika was pointing South , when hit it flipped and ended up pointing North and dropped right there.. Any of the Deer or Sika we harvested with the Hornady SST's never went more than a few feet , the SST's are AWESOME. You can count on " DEAD ON " performance every time. GH & MH
