This is great ammo for Self Defense, this will get the job done. Using solid guns like Kimber in 45 & 10mm, I was able to achieve a level of accuracy at 25 yards with this ammo that I haven't been able to do since my Army days. Firing many 3 round groups at 25 yards, All shots could fit inside the circumference of a Quarter, actually the shots on the target touched and overlapped each other, nice mushrooms, 0 malfunctions and seeing some expand to over an inch, I decided to change over and make this my first "go to" ammo. Thank you Ammo.com

Okay, first I will just say I ordered one thousand rounds after doing multiple different tests on this round. I found it to expand over .85" with the biggest one expanding just over an inch. Out of all the premium rounds and the generic rounds on the market for non-bonded hollow points in 45, this had the best performance every....single...time. Not to mention it has light recoil. I found its recoil to be on par with steel cased wolf or tulammo. It fed smooth in my glocks, 1911s and even in my tommy gun. I say buy it. Get it and thank ammo.com for this terrific product. I sure do

Reviewed alot of u tube videos regarding this ammo. I purchased 12ga and 20ga and both performed flawlessly out of my mossberg 590 and sa 20 guns. The pattern itself is perfect for what I want in a home defense round. 10yds 1" - 1-1/4" , 20 yds 3" - 3-1/2", 40 yds 9"- 10" pattern. No fliers. Very impressive ammo.

FEDERAL AND CENTURION 2 3/4" HP SLUGS SHOOT EXACTLY THE SAME! CENTURION IS CHEAPER AND CANNOT BE FOUND. FEDERAL 2 3/4" HP SLUGS WILL KILL DEER UP TO 110 YARDS. IF YOU WISH TO IMPROVE ACCURACY THEN GET YOUR BARREL CRYOED AT 300BELOW.COM. I'VE HAD MY GUNS AND KNIVES CRYOED THERE FOR 30 YEARS AND I'VE NEVER HAD A BAD RESULT! I CAN PUT THE FIRST 2 SLUGS IN TE SAME HOLE SHOOTING FREEHAND. THE THIRD IS 2"S TO THE RIGHT OF THE SECOND SHOT.

When I bought a used Mossberg-manufactured12ga fully rifled slug barrel for my Remington 870, I bought several different brands and loadings of slugs to pattern from the bench. These slugs shot the tightest groups of ANY I tried, had manageable recoil and were among the least expensive per round. I had Brenneke-style slugs, plain rifled Foster unsaboted slugs, as well as a couple of the newer saboted, all copper and copper hollow-point types costing $3-$4 or more per round. Some 2 3/4" and some 3". I see no reason to sue any other brand or load in my particular shotgun.
