Personal Security Products Phoenix Rising Sledge Hammer 12 Gauge Slug, 2-3/4-Inch

Personal Security Products’ Phoenix Rising Sledge Hammer is a 12 gauge hollow point slug (brand part no. PR-SLEDGEHAMMER) built around a single, oversized 685-grain projectile rather than a pattern of pellets. This is a specialty defensive and hunting slug, engineered for shooters who want maximum energy transfer from a shotgun in a single, accurate shot. The extremely deep hollow point cavity is designed to expand aggressively on impact, while three stabilizing fins keep the slug flying true out of both smooth bore and rifled barrels. In our shotgun shells lineup, this is the Personal Security Products load built for shooters who want a single, hard-hitting round chambered and ready.
