I found Brennkee at Dicks Sporting goods for $1.50 a box for slugs and $2.00 for OO Buck.
Best deal I have found so far. |

I anm shooting an HK Fabarms FP 6 that doesn't really care for Remmington reduced or managed recoil slugs, I have been shooting Wolf Slugs and getting 5" groups at 50 yds with no cycling problems. I must admit however, this is the only wolf ammunition I will use. The rifle and pistol remain sacrosanct, no Wolf.

Do you consider 5" groups at 50 yards good accuracy? Does other ammo do better or worse?
Is the price a good price? |

I shoot 1 oz. Winchester slugs from Wally World. It's something like $7.50/15 slugs.

Ammoman has some WW low recoil 1oz. slugs right now for $119 / 250 delivered...says these were traded ammo from Las Vegas P.D. Sounds like an excellent buy to me if the reduced recoil stuff will fill your needs.

Well, guys, I ordered the Wolf ammo from MidwayUSA. They will be here Thursday. I'll let you know how they perform. That AMMOMAN deal sounds pretty good, too. For $9 more I would have definitely purchased the US-made ammo from WW, if I'd known about it sooner.

I was in my local Wally World on Sunday and they had a ton of these Winchester slugs in the 15 round boxes on clearance for $2.00/box! I bought a few.

Believe it or not, there are no Walmarts anywhere near where I live. Does "WW" refer to Wally World (Walmart) or Winchester-Western?

"WW"...at least when I post it...means Winchester Western.

I have used the Wolf slugs, they seem to be pretty accurate. Out of 5 shots in a "string" my first one was a flyer (shot too high), three of them overlapped and the fourth was about 1.5" away from the group of three. this was at 25 yards with a bead sight, so I consider that pretty decent.
5" at 50 yards sounds like a good grouping to me. |

Because some of us don't live in states where you can hunt with centerfire weapons. Some ranges (such as my local one) don't let you fire shot on a paper target at 25 yards. The only way to function test your gun while at a rifle station is to use slugs. They will blow a lock to pieces unlike a rifle (see the box o' truth vs. locks) They allow you to use a shotgun as an imprompotu rifle simply by changing ammo types They give a good kick which is fun |

The Wolf slugs are quality shells made in Germany. I was skeptical until a friend gave me a few boxes to try. They are now the Slug of choise for one of my 870's.
You will often have to try a variety of slugs in your SGN to find what shoots the best in YOUR gun though. I have 4 Shotguns and one is zeroed with Wolf, one with Rottweil Brenneke short magnum, and two with Rem Low Recoil, becuase thats what MY guns shoot the best with. |

I totlally agree. My shotgun is bitchin'. It's my new "favorite toy". I have rifles. I LOVE rifles. I have handguns. I LOVE rifles. |
