The Norma Whitetail 12 Gauge Slug (part no. 1198043410) loads a single slug in a 12 gauge hull, 2.75 inches long, built for deer hunters. Norma built the Whitetail line specifically around deer-hunting slugs, sized and weighted for the ranges most shotgun deer hunters actually shoot. A slug trades pattern spread for a single, accurate projectile, useful anywhere a rifled bullet is not legal for hunting. In shotgun shells for deer hunters, this is a load built for exactly that job.
