SPECIAL FORCES SHORT MAGNUM SLUG
Threats come in many forms these days, sometimes driving a vehicle, sometimes hiding behind a wall. Urban and CQB situations require a unique projectile—one of unequalled penetration and stopping power at medium ranges. That’s exactly what the Brenneke Special Forces Short Magnum offers. Its massive frontal area, exceptionally hard alloys and distinctive Brenneke weightforward design will penetrate many vehicles, doors, even some walls, putting an end to the threat right here, right now.
Our 1 1/4 oz. Special Forces Short Magnum (SFM) load provides tactical performance for the law enforcement officer or homeowner who needs maximum penetration. Our SFM penetrates car doors, building materials and windshield glass with ease while retaining plenty of residual energy and momentum to incapacitate post-barrier targets. Its strength and efficient nose shape allows it the ability to defeat an engine block.
The 525 grain SFM provides extreme stopping power due to its higher ballistic coefficient and higherdownrange velocity.
Like all Brenneke law enforcement slugs, the SFM wad remains attached in flight which eliminates liability and the possibility of collateral damage (injury to innocent bystanders). Our SFMcan be accurately fired from both smoothbore and rifled barrels.
Note the large frontal area, kinetic energy and momentum of the Brenneke USA Slug vs. the typical L.E. handgun rounds -- or even the high-velocity .223 entry round. A high momentum value allows a projectile to penetrate both hard barriers and soft targets. But a high momentum factor also allows a projectile to maintain a higher average terminal velocity during penetration. I.e., its low rate of deceleration and greater frontal area causes not only more tissue damage (and hemorrhage), but more nervous system trauma which can stop a gun fight instantly. When a slug of this size and momentum traverses a living system, it halts aggressive action.
