Default Mossberg 20 gauge sabot slugs

I have a Mossberg 20 gauge rifled barrel. Which sabot slugs would you recomend for deer and for black bear?

The ones that shoot the best out of your gun. I use Federal Barnes Expanders in my 12 gauge but im pretty sure they make them for a 20 gauge also.

My son's 870 20ga rifled barrel shoots the Hornady SST's well.
The only real way to tell is to take out a second mortgage on your house and get some of each and hit the range. If your shots will always be within about 75 yds and you don't care if you can print a 2" group or a 5" group at 100yds, then most will work just fine. Pick the ones you like. My 12ga likes the Federal Barne's Expanders...deer hate em.

Hit a button buck from my stand last weekend, shattered the left shoulder, lung, heart, lung, and cut a 1" path out of three ribs on the way out.

You would need to try a few of the brands. My Mossberg 20ga. likes the Lightfields, but my H&R likes the Hornady SSTs
