Default RE: Need help on a shotgun for deer.

GorV,

I have been hunting deer for the past 20 years with a shotgun (Rem. 1100) using a screw-in rifled choke tube. I started out using sabotted slugs, but although they were very accurate, I found them somewhat lacking in Knockdown power. After reading an article in the American Rifleman testing shotguns with rifled barrels and rifled choke tubes, I tried shooting the regular Foster type slugs in my gun. I found them to be nearly as accurate as the sabotted slugs, and was able to return to the type of power I was used to. I highly recommend this setup as it eliminates the need for more than one barrel.
