"Make sure you have the right ammo".

I recently discovered Winchester PDX1 Defender segmented rifled slug ammo. It states, on the box, "Stop the threat" (trade marked statement)

So much for advertising hype - what do you who live in the real world say?

Oh, by the way, these statements are also on the box:

"Programmed notching on inside/outside of slug ensures positive expansion and segmenting at short and long range"

Also, "slug breaks into three segments upon impact - compensates for aim error and provides critical penetration"

Hype, or for real?????
