20 Gauge – Rifled Slug HP – 3/4oz – 2 3/4 – Winchester (X20RSM5) – 250 Rounds

Need a dependable 20 gauge slug for deer season or home protection? Stock up with this 250 round case of Winchester Super-X X20RSM5 20 gauge 2-3/4 inch 3/4 ounce rifled hollow point slugs.

The rifled slug is one of the most proven designs for hunting with a smoothbore shotgun. The external rifling ribs on this 3/4 ounce lead slug let it pass safely through smoothbore barrels and choke tubes, while its nose-heavy shape keeps it flying point-first for good accuracy. Winchester adds a hollow point to the nose. On impact, that cavity helps the soft lead slug expand and mushroom, which creates a large wound channel and transfers energy quickly on deer and hogs. Winchester rates this load at 1,600 fps and 1,865 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. That is serious power from a 20 gauge, with noticeably less recoil than a 12 gauge slug, which helps younger and smaller-framed hunters shoot accurately.

Rifled slugs are the go-to choice in states and zones where rifles are restricted for deer hunting, and they are effective out to roughly 75 to 100 yards from a smoothbore with good sights or a scope. This load works in virtually any 20 gauge pump, semi-automatic, or single-shot shotgun chambered for 2-3/4 inch or 3 inch shells, including the Remington 870, Mossberg 500, Benelli, Beretta, and Stoeger models. For the best accuracy, pattern your shotgun at 50 yards with an improved cylinder or cylinder choke, or a dedicated rifled slug choke. Since you should practice with the same ammo you hunt with, a 250 round case lets you confirm your zero and still stock up for several seasons.

This American-made Winchester ammo is new production with a 2-3/4 inch plastic hull and brass-plated head. It is non-corrosive. Each box holds 5 rounds, and fifty boxes make up this 250 round case. Keep the boxes stored in a cool, dry place away from solvents and oils.
