H & R ultra slug gun?

[High Country Killer]

I was thinkin about getting an H & R ultra slug gun with the thumbhole. Just seeing what everyone thinks of them. I guess they have incrediable accuracy? I was going to top it off with a Leopold Shotgun 2-7 or a Nikon Buckmasters 3-9? What do you all think

They ain't bad at all. You can do worse for $259. That Leupold or Nikon would make a great choice... don't cheap out on your scope.

Yep great gun. IM looking into getting rid of my slug barrel andgetting one!

I wouldn't say incredible accuracy, but they shoot pretty good for the money. I have friends with pumps and semi autos that shoot just as well with cantilever barrels and the correct ammo.

The key is finding the ammo your gun likes. The H&R is no different. It is still a fairly slow twist rate slug gun barrel. Albeit a HEAVY one.

Mine was better on recoil then most pump guns though because of the weight.

I would look into getting one again. I just got mine and have shot it a couple times. The accuracy was pretty good. I know the 12 ga. is quite a bit heavier than the 20. I have the 20 ga.

Paul,
Is a 1 in 28" or 1 in 34" twist rate mean that it's a "fairly slow" twist rate. I know the twist in mine that I just bought is a 1 in 28" rate. Thanks in advance.

Sorry the pictures are smaller than I would have liked them.

Any idea on who makes their barrels and are aftermarket barrels made for them?
