BPS .410 Bore 2.5″ 116 Grain 4/15 Oz. Rifled Slug – 25 Rounds (Box)

BPS .410 Bore rifled slug ammunition takes the smallest of the common shotgun bores and turns it into a single projectile tool. Instead of a spreading cloud of pellets, every shell in this box sends one 116 grain slug down the barrel toward a single point of impact. That changes what a small bore shotgun can do at close range, and it does it without the shoulder punch of a heavier gauge. Each box holds 25 rounds, which is enough for a long afternoon of practice or a full season of keeping a light gun close at hand.

What BPS .410 Bore Slugs Are and Who They Are For

The .410 is the lightest shotgun bore in general use, which is exactly why it has such a loyal following among youth shooters, smaller framed adults and anyone who wants a gun they can carry all day without noticing the weight. Most people only ever feed theirs birdshot, so a slug load opens up a side of the bore they have never used. A rifled slug is a solid projectile built for close range work, and in a light bore it stays manageable enough that a newer shooter can learn from it instead of fighting it.

This BPS .410 Bore load suits close cover, small property chores and any job where you want one hole rather than a pattern. It also suits honest practice. Shooting slugs teaches you where your barrel actually points, and doing that with mild recoil means you finish the box with the same form you started with.

Features That Matter

• 116 grain rifled slug for a single heavy point of impact rather than a spreading pattern
• 2.5 inch hull, the shell length that fits the widest range of shotguns chambered in this bore
• 25 rounds per box, so a full practice session or a season of carry comes in one purchase
• Loaded to the same spec box after box, which keeps your zero and your holdover honest
• Burns clean enough that a long string at the range does not turn into a long night at the cleaning bench
• Recoil light enough for youth and first time shooters to build real confidence

BPS .410 Bore Specifications

Every round in this box is a .410 Bore shell measuring 2.5 inches, loaded with a 116 grain projectile of rifled slug design, and the box holds 25 rounds. Those four numbers tell you most of what you need to know. The 2.5 inch length is the shorter of the two common shell lengths for this bore, the 116 grain slug is a standard weight for it, and 25 rounds is the usual retail box count.

Because the loading stays uniform from box to box, groups printed with one box should track closely with the next. That consistency matters more with slugs than it does with shot, since you are aiming at a point instead of covering an area with pellets.

Range Use, Storage and Compatibility

Check your chamber before you load. A 2.5 inch shell is safe in a 2.5 inch chamber and in a 3 inch chamber, so most guns in this bore will take it, though a 3 inch shell will not work the other way around. If you run a pump or a semi automatic, cycle a few rounds by hand and then fire a few more before you count on the load, because light bores can be particular about feeding.

Storage is not complicated. Keep the boxes cool and dry, up off a concrete floor and out of the worst humidity swings, and these shells will still be good years from now. If you are already placing an order, look through the rest of our ammunition selection and pick up your birdshot and practice loads at the same time so everything arrives together.

BPS .410 Bore slugs are a plain, effective answer for anyone who wants close range authority out of a small bore shotgun. Start with a box, see how it prints from your barrel, then order in quantity once you know. This ammunition ships straight to your door wherever state and local law allows.
