Federal Premium has revamped its price-point Grand Slam turkey loads for 2018 to include the all-new FlightControl Flex wad, which works in both ported and non-ported chokes. Add in a new buffer to keep shot from deformation and a roll-crimp to keep it all tight, and you’ve got a copper-plated lead load that produces tight patterns you wouldn’t believe—all for around $15 per 10-round box. That’s a price and performance you can’t beat. Learn more about it in the video embedded above.
