Default RE: Stats about slugs...

If you know your gun, 75 yards is long, but it's very possible. Out past that, the front bead on the gun covers the whole vitals of the deer making real aiming impossible. If you want a little more accuracy, but don't want to pay for a new barrel that costs almost what a new gun does, try the hastings rifled choke tubes. Then you can shoot sabot slugs at a flatter trajectory. I also like rifle sights, when I had a remington I put rifle sights on it and still shot it for rabbits and birds.

There is nothing wrong with a smoothbore shotgun with an imp choke tube, rifled slugs, and a good shooter that knows what his gun can do. But don't judge your gun on just one slug, try the major brands and hunt with the one that performs the best.
