New Super Slug

[Blain]

Thought you shotgun slug enthusiasts would find this interesting, a new super slug from Brenneke. The 3" black magic magnum. It is for rifled and smooth bore guns.

"Latest to be introduced is the 12-gauge Black Magic Magnum. A new Clean-Speed coating on the slug drastically reduces lead fouling in a shotgun barrel, and because its 1 1/8-ounce slug starts its journey at 1500 fps, it delivers 955 ft-lbs of punch at 100 yards.

very accurate: 2†groups at 50 yards and 3†groups at 100 yards with smoothbore barrels"




Looks pretty interesting, the brenneke 3" magnum slugs were always my favorite before due to their heavy knockdown power and large size. Looks like these may even be better.

I wish brenneke would come out with a 2 3/4 low recoil slug load.

I'll keep them in mind if they reopen Mastodon Season. Till then, I'll fill my freezer with venison collected with dinky little 2 3/4" slugs.

Thanks anyway....

Hahaha...

I'm feeling old...
Yep, that tinge I felt was another "old" checkmark in an age box...

 

[TCD]

When I get back home, I think I might need to get me a box of these

 

[Smoke]

Obviously for use in the "Ultimate" shotgun.

Wow!... Yogi and Boo-Boo had better watch out for that park ranger.

 

[Fastlane]

just one question. Why?

 

[Blain]

Obviously for use in the "Ultimate" shotgun.

I got some shells of my own.

 

[BerettaNut92]

Oooh, that bear is so black and tactical!

Where's El Tejon, did he get mauled by that bear or get abducted by the young and nubile?

 

[Blain]

Skunk....one of these days you will see the light in having a tactical 3.5" magnum gun!

Kinda partial to Win, X12RS12 myself, 2 3/4" 1oz rifled. Lost track of how many cases of these I've shot.

Then again I prefer wood & blue guns, leather slings and butt cuffs.Don't own any chambers except 2 3/4" , don't really want them...except maybe .410, then I run 2 1/2" shells 95% of the time.

I don't do change well I guess. Must have been the 25K rds a year in 12 ga. alone for years and years that affected me. Being older , 48 is old you understand, I guess I am too far gone. Always used methods and planning, shot a lot, practiced, competed. New stuff and meanings to old words. I'm a foolish old fool, relic...probably both.

I'd probably use a Stock SX2 with 3.5 for some waterfowl if I was more serious about waterfowl. Last goose I shot went "splat" pretty hard with my short chambering. Last critter with slugs , the old short antiquated ones DRT. Then again if I can see it - its dead. Not a brag, not a dream, practiced fact. I like practiced facts, old fools are like that I guess.

Oh, well, I have the right to be wrong.

Thanks for sharing, I learned something...actually a lot. Older I get the more I realize what I don't know. Old farts warned me about getting dumber with age...said it was a good thing...sure miss a few I've lain to rest. I guess I "are one" as they say. Oh well...beats the alternative...

Newer slugs

give you a pretty good pounding at the sight-in bench

however, when deer hunting there are two advantages. They are exceptionally accurate (out of rifled barrels) and shoot extremely flat. We hunt a lot of mixed woods and corn fields, so longer shots may be available

I use Remington copper solids. They hit like a freight train. Seen probably five or six deer hit with them and none went more than one step. Once you have heavy clothes on, recoil is pretty much a non-issue.

A GOOD recoil pad is HIGHLY advised.
