Phoenix Rising Slug and Buck 12 Gauge 2-3/4in Combo 3-Pack 1-3/4 oz PR-SLUG AND BUCK

The Phoenix Rising Slug and Buck 12 Gauge 2-3/4" Combo load is a heavy-duty tactical hybrid built for situations where you cannot afford to choose between precision and spread. Traditionally, shooters are forced to compromise—loading either a single, focused slug or a wide-pattern buckshot shell. This advanced duplex round eliminates that tradeoff by stacking a hardened alloy slug and six heavy 00 buckshot pellets into a single, devastating shell, giving you the best of both ballistic worlds with every pull of the trigger.

The technical advantage is found in its precise payload sequencing and advanced synthetic coating. At the moment of ignition, a hard-hitting 7/8 oz lead slug leads the shot column to punch through dense barriers and deliver crushing centerline energy. Immediately behind it, six 00 buckshot pellets spread out to expand your hit probability and maximize the terminal impact zone. To ensure flawless flight, the entire 1-3/4 oz combined payload is treated with a Full Synthetic Jacket (FSJ) polymer coating. This high-tech shield cuts down bore friction, prevents accuracy-killing lead fouling, and stops the projectiles from crushing each other out of round.

Launching at a stout 1,225 FPS, this magnum-grade combo drives downrange with a massive 2,356 foot-pounds of muzzle energy. The FSJ coating preserves the perfect aerodynamic geometry of both the slug and the buckshot, allowing them to track tightly and predictably together. Housed in a uniform 2-3/4" hull, this smooth-cycling load ensures reliable feeding, absolute internal ballistics consistency, and positive extraction when running through tactical pump-action or traditional break-action shotguns.

Key Benefits

• Stacked Duplex Payload: Combines a heavy 7/8 oz slug with six 00 buckshot pellets to deliver maximum precision and an expanded impact zone simultaneously.
• Full Synthetic Jacket (FSJ): Advanced polymer coating shields your barrel from lead fouling and stops pellet deformation for cleaner, tighter patterning.
• Massive 2,356 ft-lbs Energy: Packs a heavyweight 1-3/4 oz total payload that hits with devastating kinetic stopping power at close ranges.
• Flawless Mechanical Cycling: Precision-formed 2-3/4" hulls provide uniform internal pressures and smooth feeding across pump and break-action platforms.
