Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Federal Grand Slam work with my ported turkey choke?
Yes. The FLITECONTROL FLEX wad is specifically engineered to perform reliably in both standard and ported turkey chokes. Unlike traditional wads that can be disrupted by choke ports, the FLITECONTROL FLEX opens from the rear, allowing it to exit cleanly and deliver consistent, tight patterns regardless of choke style.
What is the effective range of Federal Grand Slam #5 turkey loads?
Federal Grand Slam is designed to perform effectively at typical turkey hunting distances of 20 to 50 yards. The combination of the FLITECONTROL FLEX wad, dense copper-plated #5 shot, and advanced buffering compound ensures pattern density and sufficient energy for clean, ethical kills at these ranges. Always pattern your specific shotgun and choke combination before hunting to confirm performance.
How does the #5 shot size compare to #4 or #6 for turkey hunting?
#5 copper-plated lead shot is widely considered the most versatile turkey hunting shot size, offering a balance between pellet count and individual pellet energy. Compared to #4 shot, you get more pellets in the pattern for greater hit probability; compared to #6, each #5 pellet carries more energy for deeper penetration into a turkey's vital zones. For most hunting scenarios and ranges, #5 is an excellent all-around choice in a 1-3/4 oz load.
