Centurion Law Enforcement 2 3/4" Multi-Defense Buckshot

E-mail Print PDF

Just ran across this very interesting 12 GA self defense round and would be very interested in hear about anyone's experience with it or other opinions.

12 Gauge Centurion Law Enforcement Multi-Defense Buck

Centurion Multi-Defense Buckshot provides a shell with unique characteristics. It is loaded with a combination of one .650" (65 cal.) round ball and six #1 buckshot pellets, this specialized shotshell offers a shell for extreme defensive situations. Its round ball provides maximum penetration and knockdown power and its buckshot increases target impact points. This is the best dual load buckshot on the market today.

If this isn't the best choice for a 12GA self defense shotgun please let me know what is and why.

Monty,

Somewhat like the old .69 Cal. (Civil War era and before) buck and ball load, as used by the 4th OVI at Gettysburg to break the Louisiana Tigers.

That load was a .67 caliber roundball and three .31 cal. buckshot over a charge of 80 gr. of FFg.

Of course they loaded a double charge of powder and three packets of buck and ball since they were taking on the Louisiana Tigers and had NO artillery support with canister rounds.

I think I might want to dump the No. 1 buck for 00 or 000 buck.

I do not know the gelatin ballistics, but I wonder how well one of those premium 58 cal. hollowpoints from Winchester would do?

I have heard that a "redneck" birdshot slug works like a large glaser round.

I have also been wondering how a magnum load of "T" hevi shot would do for SD? I have not seen any definitive answers yet, just speculating.

Lastly, for the homeloaders, I wonder how well a bird or buck shot load held together with wax would do.

I read that in Viet Nam, they would fill in the spaces between the buckshot with large bird shot? with a magnum charge behind it.
