Going on a hunt in Nov in pike co IL and figure I’d rather take a slug than ML. I’ve never done this. All my 20’s are drilled tapped with venoms on them so I’d rather just take this 12. Do I need a rifle barrel with rifled ckoke? Smooth barrel with rifled choke? All my searches leave me pretty up in the air on what to do. 257, I have no experience with this, but Hastings makes a rifled barrel for 870's I believe. From what I understand they're one of the finest around. They're made in france. I can tell you that the A5 barrel I have is great. It's called a wadlock barrel & has straight grooves in it that keep the shot charge from spinning as its fired. It does hold a good pattern. The rifled version is called the paradox(I think). It may set you back. 3 to 4 hundred, but if your serious about a slug barrel it may be worth checking on. My 2 cents worth.

The Savage 220 is a great slug gun, when it’s used correctly.... Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do. Si vis pacem, para bellum. Proud crossbow hunter!

All of the different places I hunt have damnable restrictions and rules. I’ve found the Stainless 220 with Ballistic Plex scope would do it for me in 90% of the scenarios. I hate the price of slugs for it but its a top notch setup. Last edited by JohnnyLoco; 07/08/19 12:59 PM.
