Hastings . . . The First Name in Rifled Slug Barrels.

It’s what we are and who we are.

Over 20 years ago we introduced the first replacement rifled slug barrel. It became apparent that we had just introduced true slug gun accuracy.

(By the way, it took almost 8 years for the rest of the shooting industry to notice what we were doing and try and catch up. But that’s another story. . .)

Our commitment to developing a more accurate full bore slug lead us to a unique sabot pressure wad which helped us finalize the Laser Accurate Sabot Slugs we offer today. The patented sabot pressure wad (SPW) design that is incorporated in all of our ammunition differs in design and action from all other products. This SPW is a wad of extraordinary capabilities. It not only stays with the slug down range, but prevents flyers as well. It boosts bullet coefficient to .110 - that’s the highest in the industry - because of its extended full length in flight. On the receiving end of its flight the SPW is released as the lead slug expands and drives through the deer.

SPW - The original  impact discarding sabot.

Whether your requirement is for long range Magnum loads for slug hunting at ranges out to 100 yards and beyond, or a lower recoil ammunition that still maintains Laser Accuracy, the Hastings Ammunition products will meet your needs and exceed your expectations.
