I'm not looking to debate the effectiveness of buckshot in general, so please leave that out of the discussion.
I picked up some Federal Flight Control 00 copper plated buckshot a while back with the idea to use it for deer and hog hunting
My only concern is that while most hunting buckshot loads are going ~1300 FPS, this loading is only going a supposed 1145 FPS.
Does anyone have experience with a slower buckshot loading such as this?
This is the loading that I have. My boxes are marked "Law Enforcement," however they otherwise seem to be identical.

This is a similar loading, however it is rated at 1325 FPS.
