Brenneke‘s TOPAS slug in 12 gauge (part no. SL-122TOP) combines the classic shotgun slug with sabot technology. The sub-caliber projectile rides in a cup that falls away after the muzzle, keeping the load barrel-friendly while still delivering slug-level accuracy. Stock up on these shotgun shells for a modern sabot alternative to a traditional rifled slug.
