The 12 gauge SST® Lite™ Shotgun Slug is a reduced recoil option that is ideal for youngsters, women or anyone looking to tame the recoil of their favorite rifled barrel slug gun.
Although extremely effective, 12 gauge slugs deliver a fair amount of recoil - now, hunters have an alternative with the 12 gauge SST® Lite™ Shotgun Slug that features almost 40% less felt recoil in comparison to standard 12 gauge slug options.
Loaded with the same 300 grain FTX® projectile used in the original SST® Shotgun Slug, the SST® Lite™ leaves the muzzle at 1,575 fps, but is a mild recoiling, yet highly effective load capable of taking the largest Midwest whitetail out to 150 yards!
Features:
- Reduced recoil option for ALL shooters
- 300 grain FTX® bullet
- Flex Tip® technology for enhanced terminal performance
- Effective deer hunting load – out to 150 yards
The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
12 gauge is the most popular and useful shotgun gauges ever made. Suitable for everything from doves to geese. With sporting, military and law enforcement applications. Available in 2 ¾”, 3” and 3 ½”. The magnum lengths are generally preferred for waterfowl and turkey. Most major manufacturers produce guns and ammunition in a very wide septum for 12 gauge. Loads from ¾ oz. to 2 oz. are common with 1 1/8 oz Low base and 1 ¼ oz being the most common loadings. Target loads are normally around 1150 to 1200 FPS with High velocity lead loads tuning up 1350 FPS. Steel waterfowl loads tend to be loaded faster around 1500 FPS to compensate lower density shot. While the 2 ¾” loading is still the most popular ammunition made, nearly all current production guns have 3”or 3 ½” chambers. The shorter ammunition can be safely fired in longer chambers, but not all magnum semiautomatics will function with shorter shotshells.
