Brenneke SL282BR 28 Gauge 2.75" 5/8 oz Hunting Slug Shot - 5 Rounds per Box

The Brenneke SL282BR 28 gauge 2.75" hunting slug shot brings precision and stopping power to a classic, lightweight shotgun gauge. If you're hunting with a 28 gauge—whether that's an heirloom side-by-side, a nimble over-under, or a modern semi-auto—you know the appeal: less felt recoil and reduced weight in the field without sacrificing effective range on deer and other medium game. Brenneke slugs have earned trust among hunters for decades, and these 5/8 oz loads deliver the accuracy and energy you need when it counts.

The 28 gauge occupies a sweet spot for hunters who value manageability and precision over magnum power. Where a 12 or 20 gauge might feel like overkill on a longer hunt, a 28 with quality slugs keeps you steady and focused. These rounds pack enough mass and velocity to deliver reliable performance at hunting distances, and the modest recoil means better shot placement and faster, more controlled follow-ups if needed.

Each box contains 5 rounds—standard for premium slug loads. Whether you're sighting in at the range, running a dedicated slug barrel setup, or keeping a box in your truck, Brenneke's reputation for consistent ballistics and reliable expansion makes this a dependable choice for serious 28 gauge hunters. If you've settled on the 28 as your gauge, don't compromise on ammunition quality.
