jason9223 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Greetings, I just bought a new Super Sport. I'm relatively new to shotguns and Benelli. Can I fire slugs through this gun? Which of the chokes that came with it would I use? Which slugs will NOT work? many thanks, jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Yes, you can fire slugs through it. IC or Skeet chokes with slugs designed for smoothbore barrels only. You can also buy aftermarket slug chokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tucker301 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Rifled slugs are designed for smoothbores. The slug is rifled, instead of the barrel, to impart spin to stabilize the projectile. http://www.chuckhawks.com/shotgun_slugs.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Slugs" are for rifled barrels, right? So I should always buy rifled slugs for this gun? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
