Hornady Custom Lite 12 Gauge Slug – 300 Grain FTX Sabot – 2.75"

The Hornady Custom Lite 12 Gauge Slug (86230) is the premier solution for hunters looking to tame the substantial recoil of a 12-gauge rifled barrel slug gun without sacrificing terminal performance. By utilizing modified propellants and a slightly lighter 300-grain projectile, Hornady has achieved an impressive 40% reduction in felt recoil compared to standard 12-gauge slug loads. This makes it an ideal choice for youth shooters, women, or anyone who wants a more comfortable experience during sighting-in or long days in the field.

Despite the "Lite" designation, this load is highly effective. It features the same legendary 300-grain FTX® (Flex Tip® eXpanding) projectile used in the original SST® line, delivering a muzzle velocity of 1575 FPS. The patented Flex Tip technology ensures the slug remains aerodynamic for a flatter trajectory while initiating consistent, devastating expansion upon impact, even at lower velocities. This sabot slug is capable of sub-2" groups at 100 yards and is a reliable choice for taking medium-sized game like whitetail deer and feral hogs at distances up to 150 yards.

Note: This is a sabot slug designed specifically for use in rifled barrels. It will not provide the same accuracy or performance in smoothbore shotguns.

Key Features

  • 40% Recoil Reduction: Engineered to provide a significantly milder shooting experience than standard 12ga slugs.
  • FTX® Projectile: Features Flex Tip® eXpanding technology for a higher ballistic coefficient and rapid, controlled expansion.
  • Exceptional Accuracy: Delivers surgical precision and flat trajectories optimized for rifled-barrel slug guns.
  • Modified Propellants: Custom-blended powders ensure consistent pressure and reduced muzzle blast.
  • 150-Yard Effective Range: Maintains enough energy and accuracy to humanely harvest whitetail deer at extended ranges.
  • Interlock® Ring: Ensures the core and jacket remain locked together during expansion for maximum weight retention.
