Hornady 86232 SST – 20 Gauge 2.75" | FTX Slug Shot

Don't let the smaller gauge fool you — the Hornady 86232 SST 20 Gauge 2.75" FTX Slug turns a 20 gauge into a serious deer hunting tool. Combining a traditional lead-core slug with Hornady's SST bullet design and Flex Tip technology, this round delivers the same sub-3" accuracy standard and devastating terminal performance that made the 12 gauge SST the benchmark in slug states — in a lighter, more manageable package ideal for youth hunters, compact platforms, and shooters who prefer reduced recoil without sacrificing effectiveness.

Key Features

• SST FTX Bullet Design: Hornady's Super Shock Tip (SST) profile with Flex Tip technology delivers quick, reliable expansion on impact — even at the reduced velocities of the 20 gauge at distance
• Sub-3" Groups at 100 Yards: Engineered for fully rifled 20 gauge barrels to deliver rifle-like accuracy — the same accuracy standard as the 12 gauge SST in a smaller platform
• Reduced Recoil vs. 12 Gauge: The 20 gauge platform delivers significantly less felt recoil — making this an excellent choice for youth hunters, smaller-framed shooters, and high-volume practice
• Lead-Core Construction: Traditional lead core maximizes weight and momentum for deep penetration and reliable energy transfer on whitetail and similar game
• Hornady Quality Standards: Every round loaded to tight tolerances for consistent velocity, reliable ignition, and shot-to-shot accuracy
