Fiocchi's Special Use Law Enforcement loads are designed with a special application in mind. These special purpose loads are still considered lethal and should be treated as live ammunition. The Frangible Demolition Breaching Slug is for use during special operations. It's primary function is for the facilitation of dynamic entry where doors and locks much quickly and effectively be breached to allow an entry team rapid access to an area. The projectile is formed from a composite of powdered metal and epoxy which eliminates ricochet. This round is intended for us in the destruction of door locks, door hinges, padlocks and chains. Due to the nature of this round the muzzle of the shotgun must not be in direct contact with the surface of the target although a standoff device is not necessary.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
12 gauge is the most popular and useful shotgun gauges ever made. Suitable for everything from doves to geese. With sporting, military and law enforcement applications. Available in 2 ¾”, 3” and 3 ½”. The magnum lengths are generally preferred for waterfowl and turkey. Most major manufacturers produce guns and ammunition in a very wide septum for 12 gauge. Loads from ¾ oz. to 2 oz. are common with 1 1/8 oz Low base and 1 ¼ oz being the most common loadings. Target loads are normally around 1150 to 1200 FPS with High velocity lead loads tuning up 1350 FPS. Steel waterfowl loads tend to be loaded faster around 1500 FPS to compensate lower density shot. While the 2 ¾” loading is still the most popular ammunition made, nearly all current production guns have 3”or 3 ½” chambers. The shorter ammunition can be safely fired in longer chambers, but not all magnum semiautomatics will function with shorter shotshells.
