Brenneke Tactical Home Defense 12 Ga, 2¾" Slug, 1 oz, 1378 FPS, 5rd

THD is the perfect cartridge for home defense, and for law enforcement professionals operating in crowded urban environments. It offers more than enough stopping power (even against criminals wearing bulletproof vests), but because the wad is designed not to separate from the slug, risk to innocent bystanders is reduced. T he lower recoil allows fast followup shots in case of a multiple-target scenario. The THD is the best safeguard for you and the ones you love.

This steel is actually thicker than that used in most modern European and U.S. automobiles:
