Winchester 20-Gauge Platinum Tip
This 23/4-inch, 20-gauge sabot round contains the same Platinum Tip bullet that Winchester loads in their .454 Casull handgun hunting ammunition. The .454 Casull may be a giant, scary handgun, but these 260-grain, .45-caliber bullets are dainty by shotgun-slug standards. Driven at 1700 fps, and far more aerodynamic than most slugs, the Platinum Tip retains velocity—and energy—extremely well. At 100 yards, it hits with as many foot-pounds as a 12-gauge Foster slug does at the same distance. You can sight these in for 100 yards and hit only 1.1 inches high at 50 yards and 2.2 inches low at 125. For a shotgun slug, this is laserlike performance. Better yet, their light weight means they won’t hit you with the fearsome recoil we slug shooters know so well.
