TAP® Shotgun ammunition provides law enforcement with a complete lineup of mission-ready 12 gauge solutions. Designed for reliability, consistency, and tighter patterns. Without requiring shotgun modification, these loads deliver performance trusted in critical situations.

The TAP® family includes 00 Buck, rifled slug, and the TAP® ENTRY™ frangible sintered slug, giving agencies versatile options for patrol, breaching, and entry operations. The ¾-ounce frangible ENTRY slug creates effective wound cavities while reducing the risk of over-penetration and minimizing ricochet hazards during steel training.

Hornady engineers each load—Reduced Recoil™ (blue), Light Magnum® (red), and TAP ENTRY™ (black)—to match real-world LE applications. Whether clearing structures, training, or responding to high-risk encounters, officers can expect dependable functioning, consistent performance, and improved patterning thanks to Hornady’s patented wad technology.

TAP® Shotgun stands as a unified, field-proven line built to meet the diverse demands faced by today’s law enforcement professionals.
