Default Shotgun Slug vs. Rifle

I have a friend who has decided that he'd like to try hunting this year. He's been thinking about getting a Slug Gun. I've always hunted deer with a rifle or buckshot, and don't know much about Slug Guns.

The places that I plan on taking him will have no shots over 100 yds.

Will a slug gun be OK for him. If so, what guage? Or should I talk him into a rifle?

Do slugs kill as quickly as a rifle?

Thanks, ths78
