Brenneke Ammo
I've shot more slugs than most of you young guys can shake a stick at. And this slug here by brenneke has to be the hardest hitting slug I've used and whatever you hit with it falls down. I took it to the range first and I tried it out of a rifled barrel and a smooth bore barrel and yes the rifle barrel works a lot better and was extremely accurate up 75 yards but the smooth bore barrel didn't tumble that bad and it was still accurate up to right around 50 yards. It's my go-to round. And if you're thinking of self-defense you just thought right.
The Brenneke Magnum Crush is a powerful 12 gauge slug designed for rifled barrels. This 3-inch shell delivers a hefty 1 1/2 oz slug at a velocity of 1604 fps, making it Brenneke's hardest-hitting slug option. The Magnum Crush features a special coating to reduce lead fouling and broad ribs that provide optimum engagement with rifling grooves, resulting in extraordinary accuracy and unmatched impact power.
