Federal Premium introduced new "Shorty" shotshells at SHOT Show 2019, designed for compact storage and convenience. These shells are available in three loads: #8 shot, #4 buckshot, and rifled slug, offering versatility for various applications. They are designed to function in any 12-gauge shotgun, though break-action or single-shot models are recommended.
This video tests various .410 shotgun ammunition types for home defense effectiveness by shooting them into water jugs. The test includes Number 6 shot, Number 4 Buck, Triple O Buck, Hornady Critical Defense, PDX1, and a standard deer slug. The results indicate that while Number 6 shot is a baseline, buckshot and slugs generally offer more penetration and damage potential for home defense scenarios.
