“slug”

Foster-type slugs have maintained their appeal to the single-shotgun hunter, resulting in most major ammunition manufacturers offering them. The latest to do so is Hornady.

Whether for range use, personal defense or hunting, Federal’s new Shorty shotshells pack a similar punch to their bigger brothers in a small, 1¾-inch shell. Loaded with No. 8 shot, No. 4 buckshot or a rifled slug, there’s a reduced-recoil Shorty for you.

Browning’s new BXS line of shotgun ammunition is a definite example of modern advancements in slug design.

Yes, Savage Arms is best-known for its rifles. But that doesn't mean shotguns are out of the question. For 2016, the company has rolled out its custom Model 212 and 220 turkey shotguns, which are meant to redefine the look and capability of a turkey gun. Both firearms are available through the company's Special Order Department.

With the push of a button, the new Eliminator 6 laser rangefinding riflescope ranges out to 2,000 yards and displays the distance to the target, exact aiming point and wind data.
