I used them last year and over all was very pleased with their preformance. Of course dont expect them to shoot as true as a rifle just because they have such a good trajectory. Heres some specs incase you dont have them.
12 gauge is 300 gr. 2000fps
50 yrds +2.4
100 yrds +2.7
150 yrds 0.0
200 yrds -6.7
$15 for a box of 5 (very pricey)
Deffinetly want to resight your gun if you are going to make the switch to the Hornady SST. I bore sighted mine .Then got it closer with cheaper slugs before fine tunning the scope with the SSTs.
If you decide not to shoot them and want your $10 back let me know.

I bought 2 boxes for my 20 gauge Ultra Slug Hunter last year. They shoot good for a shotgun, but I have not shot a deer with one yet.

Hey guys Try Midsouthshooterssupply.com They have them for about $10 per box. They are located just off of I-24 at exit 11 in Clarksville, TN. I live in Clarksville. I call them on the phone, place my order, and pick up my order two hours later. All you have to do is call them and fax your drivers license to them to start an account. You can pay with your credit card and they will ship it to you. But If you are driving there, you can pay with cash but you must have exact change. They are a lot cheaper than anyone else around, including Wal-mart.
