Fed Grand Slam 20ga 3" #5 1-5/16oz

The Federal Grand Slam 20 Gauge 3" #5 shot ammunition delivers controlled, dense patterns optimized for turkey hunting at extended ranges. Built around Federal's proven FLITECONTROL FLEX wad system, this round functions reliably through both standard and ported turkey chokes, opening from the rear to maintain payload integrity and ensure consistent shot placement where it matters most.

The 1-5/16 oz copper-plated lead payload is cushioned with advanced buffering compound, reducing deformation during acceleration and maintaining pellet density downrange. At 3 inches, this magnum length chamber round carries sufficient energy to anchor birds decisively at distances where standard 2 3/4-inch loads lose pattern integrity. The #5 shot size balances penetration with pattern density—large enough to anchor target birds reliably, small enough to deliver the pellet count needed for consistent, full-coverage patterns beyond 40 yards.

This ammunition serves serious turkey hunters running 20-gauge shotguns who prioritize range extension without stepping up to 12-gauge recoil. The wad-retention design and consistent patterns make Federal Grand Slam the choice for hunters demanding reliable performance across varying choke constrictions and real-world hunting conditions. Whether you're working timber or open country, this round delivers the pattern predictability and downrange energy required for clean, ethical kills.

Federal Premium shotshell ammunition maintains its reputation for quality control and consistency across production runs—a critical factor when patterning loads and relying on ammunition performance during the season. The 20-gauge platform continues to gain adoption among hunters seeking reduced recoil without sacrificing effective range, and Federal Grand Slam addresses that demand with proven wad technology and reliable ballistics.
