Anybody got any experience with an 870 12 gauge cantilever slug barrel? What kind of accuracy do you think I can get at 100 yards?

If you find a slug that it likes (can get pricey trying different ones but you have to do it), 2"-3" groups are not uncommon at all. Word to the wise to save you a bunch of headache and $....don't tighten your barrel nut by hand when you put it on your gun. It will shift from the recoil and drive you crazy when it shoots so poorly. Lock the barrel nut down with some pliers and it will most likely surprise you how good it will shoot.

This. I added some blue Lock-Tite as well. Most of your serious slug gun hunters will have the barrel pinned to the receiver.
