I just wanted to know what is working for user thanks for saving me some dollars and time!! You should get yourself some Hornady SST rounds. Also Brenneke makes Gold Magnums (Simply Awsome) and the Super Sabot for rifled barrels only. Personally I am a huge fan of the Black magics, if you are hunting deer I would get the 2-3/4". Black Magics work great out of smoothbore and rifled barrels. All of these slugs with the exception of the Super Sabot I have used a lot of and love there performance. 1/2" groups with the Black Magics! Happy Hunting! Quote
ishootkittens Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 psst.. sabots suck..go with the black magics hahaha Quote
mlschiestel Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 not to change the topic but what type of slugs would you recomend for shooting out of a smooth bore barrel? Quote
tyson129 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 rifled (foster) slugs if you are being funny. Still Brenneke Black Magics...IMO Quote
tyson129 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 mlschiestel, You should look into rifled chokes if there are any concerns. Happy Hunting! Quote
ishootkittens Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 dude.. listen to tyson.. he knows his ****. Quote
[email protected] Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 I would recommend that you use rifled slugs, such as the new Federal Truball or Remington Sluggers. These are what I shoot in my Remington 870 smoothbore slug barrel. Quote
tyson129 Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 I have not tried the Truballs yet but have heard they are great from Trapshooter1, who does do a lot (A real lot) of shooting, so I would def be confident in the field with them after a few preliminary tests to see how they shot out of my SuperNova. As far as the Sluggers go I have nothing to say. Its worth a try out of your gun, who knows maybe it will perform the best for you. There just is nothing about it that stands out to me and says "Hey I am a Great Slug"....But that is what pattern tests are for Good luck- And Thanks ishootkittens! Quote
