Description

Hornady’s SST FTX 20 Gauge 2.75 in 250-grain slug combines a pointed Flex Tip (FTX) design with Hornady’s SST construction to deliver a flat trajectory and consistent long-range performance. The cartridge is intended for use in fully rifled slug barrels and is engineered for hunting and precision slug shooting. With a high ballistic coefficient and rapid expansion from the polymer tip, this load is aimed at shooters seeking consistent accuracy out of rifled-barrel shotguns.

Key Specifications

• The 20 Gauge designation offers a balance of reduced recoil and effective terminal performance for many hunters.
• The 250-grain projectile provides mass for retained energy at longer ranges.
• The FTX (Flex Tip) polymer tip enhances ballistic coefficient for a flatter trajectory and controlled expansion.
• The 2.75-inch (2 3/4″) cartridge length ensures compatibility with shotguns chambered for standard 2.75″ loads.
• The 1800 fps muzzle velocity delivers a predictable flight path and downrange energy suitable for hunting applications.
• The approx. 1798 ft-lbs muzzle energy reflects the cartridge’s retained power at the muzzle for field use.
• Designed for use in fully rifled barrels only, which maximizes accuracy and stabilizes the sabot/slug combination.
• The SST construction and pointed tip are intended to produce consistent accuracy, with manufacturer data showing sub-2″ groups at 100 yards in suitable rifled barrels.

Whether you’re preparing for a hunting season or dialing in a rifled-barrel slug gun at the range, Hornady’s SST FTX 20 Gauge 250-grain slug is built for consistent flight and reliable terminal effects from properly rifled barrels. Its combination of a polymer Flex Tip and SST design makes it a practical choice for shooters who prioritize accuracy and predictable performance.
