Federal Premium LE BallistiClean Frangible 12 GA Slug 25 Rounds 2.75″

Clear Product Overview

Federal Premium LE BallistiClean Frangible 12 Gauge Slugs (2.75-inch / 25 Rounds) are law-enforcement-grade tactical training and breach-capable shotgun loads designed for high-volume range work, close-quarters tactical drills, and hard-target engagement. Built around a lead-free, non-toxic copper-and-polymer frangible slug projectile, BallistiClean ammunition disintegrates into tiny, harmless particles upon striking steel targets, concrete walls, or heavy barriers. This frangible design completely eliminates dangerous splashback, ricochets, and airborne lead hazards, providing maximum safety during indoor shoot-house training and close-distance steel target shooting.

Real-World Use Information

Specifically engineered to mimic the velocity, point of impact, and recoil impulse of standard duty tactical slugs, Federal LE BallistiClean 12 Gauge Frangible Slugs allow shooters to train realistically without the risks associated with solid lead projectiles. The frangible slug pulverizes into fine dust upon high-velocity impact against hard surfaces, protecting instructors and team members standing just yards away from target backstops. Additionally, the non-toxic primer and lead-free core dramatically lower airborne heavy metal contamination in enclosed range facilities.

Compatibility & Requirements

• Firearm Compatibility: Safe for use in all modern 12-gauge shotguns chambered for 2.75-inch (2-3/4″) or 3-inch shells (pump-action, semi-automatic, and break-open).

• Choke Recommendation: Performs best through Cylinder, Improved Cylinder, or specialized tactical breaching choke tubes.

• Safety Requirement: Always wear protective shooting glasses and ear protection during shoot-house drills or steel target training.

Pros & Limitations

Pros:

• Zero Splashback Safety: Pulverizes completely upon striking hard steel or concrete backstops, eliminating hazardous ricochets.

• Lead-Free Environmental Protection: Compressed copper slug and clean primer safeguard shooters from toxic lead dust in indoor ranges.

• Realistic Duty Recoil: Formulated to match the feel and trajectory of standard 12-gauge tactical duty slugs.

• Reduced Wall Penetration: Limits over-penetration hazards in multi-room training scenarios.

Limitations:

• Training & Breaching Focused: Designed primarily for target disintegrating and breaching; not intended for deep-penetration big game hunting.

• Requires Hard Target Impact: Needs a rigid surface (steel, masonry, heavy hinges) to ensure complete frangible breakup.
