The Federal Premium Grand Slam 10 Gauge 3.50-Inch 2oz #5 Shot (brand part no. PFCX101F5) trades a bit of per-pellet energy for a denser pattern than the line’s #4 loading, using the same 2-ounce payload in a smaller, more numerous pellet. Federal Ammunition builds this load around its FLITECONTROL FLEX wad system, which works in both standard and ported turkey chokes, opening from the rear for a controlled release and extremely consistent patterns. Copper-plated lead pellets are cushioned with an advanced buffering compound, keeping shot rounder for dense, crushing patterns on a gobbler. In shotgun shells for spring turkey season, this is the denser-pattern option in Federal’s 10 gauge Grand Slam lineup.
