Hornady® Superformance® Shotgun slugs feature the innovative, accurate and deep penetrating MonoFlex® projectile in your choice of either 12 or 20 gauge loads!
At the heart of the Superformance® Shotgun slug is the MonoFlex® – a monolithic solid projectile made from gilding metal (95% copper / 5% zinc) and topped with the Hornady® exclusive Flex Tip® feature that works as a catalyst for uniform expansion, even at the low velocities of longer range impacts. The MonoFlex® won’t separate, and retains 95% of its original weight.
Specifically engineered to deliver accuracy, penetration and extremely high weight retention, the MonoFlex® is a “non-traditional” / alternative metal option that is a fantastic choice for ALL hunters.
Fueled by the use of our specially blended propellants, the Superformance® Shotgun Slug is built to deliver maximum velocity for flatter trajectories and enhanced terminal performance.
The slug’s internal sabot and gas seal construction is scientifically engineered to trap gases that deliver uniform pressure and velocity while working to force open the petals and uniformly push the slug toward its target – accurately.
All of these features combine to create a slug that is capable of taking everything from Midwest whitetails to Alaskan moose.

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.
The 20-gauge follows the 12-gauge as America's second-most popular shotgun gauge. And, with modern shotshells, continues to gain ground. The 20-gauge has a bore diameter of .615-inch, with modern shells in either 2 3/4 "standard" or 3-inch "magnum" length. Most modern shotguns are chambered to handle both. Payloads vary from light-recoiling 5/8-ounce loads all the way to heavy turkey loads carrying 1 5/16 ounces of shot. Standard 2 3/4" loads for targets and upland birds are normally 7/8 or one ounce. At its very best the 20-gauge does not have the capability of a 12-gauge...but with modern shot, wad columns, and chokes it doesn't give up much, and it can be built into a much lighter shotgun developing less recoil. Virtually all manufacturers offer 20-gauge guns, and they are available in all action types and for virtually all shotgunning sports. The 20-gauge joins the 12, 28, and .410 as one of four events in skeet competition, and is becoming increasingly popular for sporting clays.
