Each 438-grain slug travels from a 3-inch chamber, delivering consistent velocity and energy downrange. TacticCAL Gun Store stocks these loads for hunters working dense cover or open terrain. Five rounds per box means you're purchasing controlled quantities for patterning, hunting trips, or sport shooting applications. TacticCAL is your local gun store in the Bay Area.
