Frequently Asked Questions
What firearms are compatible with Sterling Big Game .410 Slug 2.5" shells?
These shells are designed for any .410 bore shotgun chambered for 2.5" shells or longer, including break-action single-shots, over/under shotguns, lever-action rifles chambered in .410, and semi-automatic .410 shotguns. Always verify your firearm's chamber length before use and consult your owner's manual for approved ammunition specifications.
How does the antimony-hardened slug improve performance over standard lead slugs?
Antimony hardening increases the slug's density and structural integrity, allowing it to maintain its shape better upon impact for deeper, more consistent penetration. Combined with Sterling's soft wad design, the slug is guided more accurately through the bore, resulting in improved downrange accuracy and terminal performance on medium-sized game.
