Federal PFCX157F5 Premium Grand Slam 12 Gauge 3" 1 3/4 oz 5 Shot 10 Per Box/25 Cs

The Federal Premium Grand Slam 12 Gauge 3" shotgun ammunition delivers the pattern density and energy turkey hunters need to connect on long-range shots. Built around Federal's FLITECONTROL FLEX wad system, these loads open from the rear to maintain tight, consistent patterns through both standard and ported turkey chokes—a versatility advantage when you're working different guns or testing what your setup prefers. The 1 3/4 oz payload of copper-plated lead shot is buffered to resist deformation, so each pellet stays round and keeps its energy downrange where it counts.

This is turkey ammunition engineered to extend your effective range and convert opportunities at distance. The #5 shot size splits the difference between pattern density and individual pellet energy, making it a balanced choice for gobblers across typical hunting distances. The clear wad card and roll crimp secure the buffering compound in place, ensuring shot-to-shot consistency—a detail that matters when you're patterning your gun and building confidence in your setup.

Federal backs the Grand Slam line with a commitment to conservation: a portion of proceeds support the National Wild Turkey Federation, putting your ammunition investment toward habitat and wild bird management. Each box contains 10 rounds, giving you enough volume for serious pattern testing, multiple birds, or a full season without the waste.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will Federal Grand Slam work in ported turkey chokes?

Yes. The FLITECONTROL FLEX wad is designed to function reliably in both standard and ported turkey chokes, so you can use these loads regardless of your barrel setup.

What's the #5 shot size best for?

Federal loads the Grand Slam with #5 shot, which provides a balance between pattern density and individual pellet energy. This makes it a versatile choice for gobblers across typical turkey hunting ranges.

Why does the buffering compound matter?

The buffering compound cushions the lead pellets during the acceleration process, preventing them from deforming against each other. Round pellets fly truer and more consistently, resulting in denser patterns and more reliable performance on target.

How many rounds are in a box?

Each box contains 10 rounds, giving you enough for thorough pattern testing and field use.
