xformer Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 I am new to the world of shotguns. I just purchased a field supernova. I forgot I had the modified choke in the barrel and shot some 2 3/4 rifled slugs through the the gun. would this cause any damage to the barrel or choke??? Quote
BoJack Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Its not recommended, but I don't think a Modified choke would hurt anything, if your choke screws in and out as normal I would say you are good to go. In the future so you can sleep better I would probaly use the cylinder choke for riffled slugs. Quote
Renault Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Cylinder and IC are recommended for slugs, but I believe that as long as it's not a steel slug it won't hurt your mod choke. If I'm wrong someone will definitely correct me on this. Quote
twowheelhooligan Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 I've run slugs through my M4 with the factory supplied choke, which is the Modified. NO PROBLEMS! No signs of stress, stretching, cracks, or otherwise. I now have the Carlson's breacher choke installed and have fired slugs too. No problems! I can't imagine Benelli having provided a choke for a tactical shotty, not allowing slugs. But then again. . . maybe I should look at the manual for more details! Quote
