The Brenneke USA Green Lightning Heavy Field is a 12 gauge rifled slug load built for hunters who need reliable knockdown power without breaking the bank. Loaded to 2-3/4" with a 1-1/4 oz lead rifled slug, this is a straightforward, field-proven choice for deer and medium game at typical hunting ranges. If you're running a smoothbore or rifled shotgun barrel and want a slug that patterns consistently, Brenneke's reputation for solid manufacturing means you're not gambling on ammo quality.
Green Lightning loads deliver the kind of predictable ballistics that let you focus on hunting instead of worrying about your ammunition. The rifled slug design provides the accuracy needed for confident shots in the field, and the lead construction ensures proper velocity and impact performance. Whether you're hunting from a blind, working thick cover, or taking advantage of shotgun season's extended range opportunities, this is a practical, no-frills slug load that gets the job done.
This box contains 5 rounds, making it easy to grab a box or two for a weekend hunt or to keep in your truck during season. Brenneke slugs are manufactured to exacting standards, so you know what you're getting—no surprises on the patterning board or in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will Green Lightning slugs work in my smoothbore shotgun?
Yes. The rifled slug design works in both smoothbore and rifled barrels, though rifled barrels will typically deliver tighter groupings. Always check your shotgun's manual to confirm slug compatibility.
What's the effective range for Brenneke 12 gauge slugs?
That depends on your barrel (rifled vs. smoothbore), your shotgun's accuracy, and your hunting conditions. The 1-1/4 oz lead slug is suitable for typical shotgun slug hunting ranges where you'd normally use a 2-3/4" load.
How many rounds come in a box?
Each box contains 5 rounds, giving you flexibility to buy single boxes for a hunt or stock up as needed.
Are these slugs lead or steel?
Green Lightning Heavy Field loads use a lead rifled slug, not steel or other shot types.
