NEF 20ga

adam11082 · 08-11-2008, 11:48 AM

I just got rid of my Mossberg 535 slug gun and am looking to get another. I do have a NEF 20ga smooth bore that I am considering getting drilled and tapped for a scope. I would put a red-dot on it/ I will never have the chance to take a shot over 50yds, so I think the smooth bore can handle it. What do you guys think?

BTW: the drilling and tapping wouldn't cost me anything, the only cost would be the red-dot.

Thanks
adam

Out to 50 yards. I say go for it. I have shot alot of deer with smoothbores and foster slugs up to and past 50 yards.

But I think I would go with something more like a straight 2X scope and skip he red dot for deer.

Let me know how it turns out please.
