They are not very accurate!!! Last night we missed a big boar at 40 yards 4 TIMES. We defied all odds and accomplished the impossible.

I feel your pain. When I first started hunting with slugs, I missed a big 8pt 5 times at 30 yards. Buy a rifled barrel and shoot sabots.

You know, growing up my dad worked at a military depot and we hunted there, it was slugs only. We both shot Remington 1100s with smooth slug barrels, always had a scope on those guns. We shot the basic Winchester 1oz rifled hollow points and those guns were surprisingly accurate. We killed deer out to 100 yards, and occasionally farther. But those smooth barrels won't shoot a saboted slug whatsoever!!
We were on the edge of Eternia, when the power of Greyskull began to take hold.

Im probably the only redneck who has one mounted on my tractor. Targets of opportunity do not always present themselves at 30 yards.
I love my country, but don't trust my government.

But those smooth barrels won't shoot a saboted slug whatsoever!! lol that's the exact slugs we shot. I don't know if it had something to do with the choke tube or not, or maybe the fact it came out like a knuckle ball. But we're shooting it at a target before we use it agin.

Can you get just a rifled choke? I still have an 1100 with a Remchoke barrel (21" with rifled sights). It still won't handle a modern "fast" sabot. However, Winchester makes a BRI sabot, speed is pretty slow like an old Foster style, it's pretty slick with those.

You need to shoot it at paper and see what's going on.

Some shoot them good and some dont.
My brother has a 20 gauge Rem 870 with a std smooth bore 28" modified barrel that will outshoot most rifled slug guns I've seen. At 50yds they will be touching and I wouldnt hesitate to shoot one at 150 with it.
I've got the exact same gun and I'm lucky to hit a pie plate at 50 yds with mine. It just sprays them out there randomly.
