Frankly, for a long, long time, we did not think much of sabots. Yes, they were capable of fine accuracy, but at the cost of knockdown power and penetration. We considered most sabots on the market to be weaklings.
MoreMany think that non-toxic ammunition is a recent innovation. Brenneke created the remarkable SuperSabot™ well over two decades ago, long before lead-free became fashionable.
More“Classic” is not just a name. A classic in every regard, the Classic Magnum is a direct descendant from Wilhelm Brenneke’s first revolutionary designs. For decades it has been one of our most popular, enduring loads.
MoreCheck out the energy delivered by our Green Lightning—approaching that of many centerfire cartridges—and you’ll see why so many deer have checked out because of them. In independent tests, Green Lightning’s penetration surpassed competitive slugs from Hornady®, Lightfield®, Remington®, Winchester® and Wolf® from a minimum of 25% to a whopping 67%.
MoreIf you’re looking to save a few bucks on a slug that will flatten a buck, look no further than the Orange Lightning. The lowest-priced slug we offer, it is an excellent all-around load with plenty of energy, terrific accuracy (five-shot groups under 2 1/2" at 50 yards) and a full one ounce of Original Brenneke punch.
MoreBrenneke power and performance in a traditional slug that just happens to be lead-free. The deer won’t notice its attractive price, but you will.
MoreAn old saying goes, “you get what you pay for.” With K.O. slugs, that’s not entirely true. You get a lot more than you pay for. Since their introduction well over two decades ago, hunters have come to value K.O. performance as much as their reasonable price.
MoreTin. Yes, food-safe, non-toxic tin. After a great deal of research and testing, we can now offer a revolutionary hunting sabot that is completely safe for you. For a deer, however, that’s a different story.
MoreA classic in every regard, the Classic Magnum is a direct descendant from Wilhelm Brenneke’s first revolutionary designs. For decades it has been one of our most popular, enduring loads. The Classic Magnum puts magnum power into 2 3/4" shotguns with its heavy, weight-forward 1 1/8 oz. slug, generating superb energy combined with a flat trajectory.
MoreWho doesn’t enjoy the minimal weight and recoil of the 28gauge? Now, that venerable shotgun can be anything butminimal with the power and speed of a Brenneke 28 slug. It is an excellent choice for small game, and would be lethal on adeer with proper shot placement at close ranges.It is an ideal projectile for introducing a young person to slug shooting, or simply to expand the horizons of an oftenoverlookedclassic shotgun. It can do double duty for homedefense, too.
MoreA heavy one-ounce Brenneke® slug, backed by three inches of magnum power, makes your three-inch twenty put many 12 gauges to shame. Velocity and energy both are excellent to 100 yards and beyond. The flat trajectory means no worries about holding high or low.
MoreBut, the power and range provided by a BRENNEKE .410 Silver Slug is something entirely new. Designed for three-inch chambers, the Magnum .410 is as accurate as many .22s, with vastly more power. It is a perfect way to introduce a youngster to both shotshells and slugs, to targets and small game, all with the same low-recoiling, economical firearm.
MoreRevolvers chambered for .410/.45 Colt cartridges are great home defense and trail firearms, and just plain fun to shoot. We created the Close Encounter to add even more versatility. Its large frontal area along with substantial weight and mass is vastly more powerful than a shotshell.
More“Shockingly different” is how we describe the TOPAS sabot, and is it ever. It is shockingly reasonable in price, but much higher in quality than ordinary mass-produced Foster-type slugs. In a very short time, the TOPAS has become one of our most popular hunting loads. TOP Accuracy and Speed—from which it derives its name—is why.
MoreOur TOPAS 12 gauge sabot is one of our most popular loads…so it is only fair to offer its exceptional performance to 20 gauge shooters, too. Plus, its food-safe tin is completely lead-free and non-toxic, at a non-toxic price.
MoreThe ATS® Anti-Terror Slug was recently developed in Europe to address the increasingly more dangerous and sophisticated terrorist attacks many EU countries are experiencing. It is a step up in muzzle velocity compared to our Special Forces Short Magnum® (approximately 15% greater), with a lighter, harder slug. This results in correspondingly greater penetration on hard targets at medium distances.
MoreOur Special Forces Short Magnum® (SFSM) was created specifically for urban and CQB situations where the target is concealed behind a wall, a door, in a vehicle, or similar barrier. It provides superb penetration—through 34.9" of FBI-spec ballistic gelatin—to put an immediate end to the threat.
MoreThe Brenneke Special Forces Maximum Barrier Penetration Magnum™ (MBPM) was developed at the request of military and law enforcement communities for a unique projectile with which to address the most demanding urban threats. It provides the deepest penetration of any Brenneke slug, extensively tested across a number of difficult real-world situations.

MoreShort 2" loads have become popular among shotgunners looking for less recoil, more accurate followup shots, greater magazine capacity and less expense. All these characteristics also make our Mini Slug ideal for home protection.

Since their introduction well over two decades ago, hunters have come to value K.O. performance as much as their reasonable price. An improved Foster design, in both 12 and 20 gauge, provides deadly knockdown power and terrific accuracy.
MoreDeveloped specifically for those who spend time in bear country, whether for work or recreation, these loads feature our heaviest slugs and maximum energy transfer…up to 3,545 foot pounds at the muzzle. They will function beautifully in just about any 2 3/4" chamber, in rifled and smoothbore barrels.

MoreOne of our most popular slugs for many years, the Black Magic Magnum will take on the world’s biggest, toughest creatures with ease. The black CleanSpeed™ coating virtually eliminates lead fouling in the barrel, and its patented B.E.T. wad assists in transferring maximum energy to the target and stabilizing its flight path.
MoreIf you are looking for the most powerful, devastating hunting slug we make, you’ve found it. For rifled barrels and 3" chambers only, its broad ribs provide optimum engagement over its entire range. A special coating reduces lead fouling which can affect accuracy.
