Frequently Asked Questions
Will the FLITECONTROL FLEX wad work with my ported turkey choke?
Yes — that's one of the standout features of the Grand Slam load. The FLITECONTROL FLEX wad is specifically designed to function reliably in both standard (non-ported) and ported turkey chokes. Its rear-opening design allows for a controlled, consistent payload release regardless of choke style, giving you tight, repeatable patterns no matter your setup.
Why choose #4 shot for turkey hunting instead of #5 or #6?
#4 copper-plated lead pellets offer a larger diameter and greater individual pellet energy than #5 or #6, which translates to deeper penetration and more reliable kills at longer ranges. While smaller shot sizes produce higher pellet counts, #4 shot strikes the right balance between pattern density and per-pellet knockdown power, making it an excellent all-around choice for spring turkey seasons where shots can push 40–50 yards.
How should I store Federal Grand Slam turkey shells between seasons?
Store your Grand Slam shells in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight, humidity, and extreme temperature fluctuations. Keeping them in their original box in an ammo can or a climate-controlled storage area will preserve primer sensitivity and powder integrity for many years. Avoid storing ammunition near solvents or chemicals, and always inspect shells for corrosion or deformation before use.
