Brenneke Close Encounter .410 2.5" Slug

Brenneke Close Encounter .410 Slug

The Brenneke Close Encounter represents a thoughtful engineering solution for .410 shotgun users seeking reliable slug performance in a compact package.

Key Features

• Gauge & Dimensions: .410 bore, 2.5" shell length
• Projectile Weight: 1/4 ounce (109 grains) lead slug
• Velocity: 1500 feet per second at the muzzle
• Design: Lead point with directional ribs for consistent choke passage
• Patented Mechanism: Rear section slides into the point upon impact, controlling expansion and energy transfer

Performance Characteristics

The Close Encounter's innovative rear-sliding design distinguishes it from conventional slugs. The ribbed construction guides the projectile smoothly through various choke constrictions, reducing deformation and maintaining accuracy. Upon impact, the patented rear mechanism engages the forward point, creating controlled expansion that balances penetration with energy dissipation.

This ammunition is well-suited for hunters and sport shooters working with .410 shotguns who demand precision and reliability from a smaller-bore platform. The moderate velocity and compact projectile weight make this an excellent choice for close-range hunting applications where the .410's inherent limitations are respected.

Packaging
