Hunters seeking a lower-recoiling slug for a fully rifled 20 Gauge Shotgun will appreciate the design of Hornady Custom Lite ammunition. This 2-3/4 inch load uses a 250 Grain FTX projectile featuring Hornady's patented Flex Tip technology, which is designed to initiate expansion upon impact. Hornady developed the Custom Lite shotgun slug line with modified fast-burning propellants that reduce recoil by approximately 25% in 20 Gauge compared to other standard 20 Gauge options. Hornady #86233 is specifically intended for fully rifled barrels, making it a suitable choice for hunters using rifled-barrel 20 gauge slug guns who want a modern hunting projectile combined with the benefits of a reduced recoil shell.

The reduced-recoil configuration makes this 5 Round Box a good option for sighting in, preparing for hunting season, or keeping additional ammunition available that does not include heavier recoil associated with many full-power slug loads. The 250 grain FTX provides a substantial hunting projectile, while the lighter-recoiling load can make practice and extended shooting sessions more comfortable. For hunters who prefer a softer-shooting 20 Gauge Slug while still wanting Hornady's FTX bullet technology, Custom Lite provides an appealing alternative to standard-power ammunition. Pick up a box of Hornady Custom Lite 20 gauge slugs and have this reduced-recoil hunting load ready for your next season.
