The Federal Premium Grand Slam 10 Gauge Turkey Load delivers devastating downrange performance, combining the legendary FLITECONTROL FLEX wad with premium copper-plated lead shot to give serious turkey hunters the consistent, lethal patterns they demand.
- FLITECONTROL FLEX wad opens from the rear for controlled, uniform payload release
- Compatible with both standard and ported turkey chokes for versatile use
- Copper-plated #5 lead shot resists deformation for deeper, more consistent penetration
- Advanced buffering compound cushions pellets and tightens downrange pattern density
- Magnum 3.5-inch shell launches a full 2 oz. payload for maximum pellet count
- 10 rounds per box — purpose-built for the demands of spring turkey season
Who This Is For
The Federal Grand Slam 10 Gauge is built for dedicated turkey hunters who run big-bore shotguns and refuse to compromise on range or knockdown power. Whether you're hunting open hardwoods or thick brush where gobblers hang up at distance, this load gives you the tight, high-density patterns and pellet energy needed to cleanly harvest even the most hard-headed longbeards at extended ranges.

Frequently Asked Questions
What chokes work with the Federal Grand Slam FLITECONTROL FLEX wad?
The FLITECONTROL FLEX wad is specifically engineered to perform in both standard (non-ported) and ported turkey chokes. Unlike earlier FLITECONTROL designs that were limited to non-ported chokes, the FLEX version releases from the rear of the wad, making it compatible with a wide range of aftermarket and factory turkey choke tubes. For best results, use a turkey-specific extra-full or super-full choke to maximize pattern density.
Why choose a 10 gauge over a 12 gauge for turkey hunting?
The 10 gauge platform offers a larger bore diameter and higher payload capacity than even a 3.5-inch 12 gauge, allowing for more pellets per shot and greater energy at longer distances. With a full 2 oz. of #5 copper-plated shot, this Federal Grand Slam load delivers exceptional pattern density and terminal performance — particularly valuable for hunters pursuing turkeys in open terrain where birds may hang up beyond 40 yards.
How does copper-plated shot improve turkey hunting performance?
Copper plating hardens the surface of each lead pellet, significantly reducing deformation during the violent acceleration through the barrel and choke. Rounder, more uniform pellets fly truer, maintain velocity longer, and penetrate more deeply upon impact. Combined with Federal's advanced buffering compound — which fills the spaces between pellets to absorb setback forces — the result is tighter, more consistent patterns and more reliable, ethical kills on gobblers at distance.
