Putting the fun back into shooting!

Reduced Recoil

By using slightly lighter bullets and modified propellants, shooters will achieve significant recoil reduction over standard loads.

Proven Bullets

Loaded with SST® bullets, Custom Lite® ammunition delivers flat trajectories and hard-hitting performance.

Consistent Components

Like all Hornady® ammunition, we match powders to each load for optimum pressure, velocity and consistency. High quality cases and primers contribute to consistent shooting in the field.

Additional Information

The 12 gauge Custom Lite® Shotgun Slug is a reduced recoil option that is ideal for youngsters, women or anyone looking to tame the recoil of their favorite rifled barrel slug gun. Although extremely effective, 12 gauge slugs deliver a fair amount of recoil - now, hunters have an alternative with the 12 gauge Custom Lite® Shotgun Slug that features almost 40% less felt recoil in comparison to standard 12 gauge slug options. Loaded with the same 300 grain FTX® projectile used in the original SST® Shotgun Slug, the Custom Lite® leaves the muzzle at 1,575 fps, but is a mild recoiling, yet highly effective load capable of taking the largest Midwest whitetail out to 150 yards!
  • Reduced recoil option for ALL shooters
  • 300 grain FTX® bullet
  • Flex Tip® technology for enhanced terminal performance
  • Effective deer hunting load – out to 150 yards
