Default RE: Lightfield Slug question

ORIGINAL: TimHixson

I have a Rem. 870 with the fully rifled barrel and Bushnell scope. I have been sighting it in with the Lightfield Hybred EXP sabot slugs. These are the 2-3/4"shells with a 1-1/4 oz slug. They shot pretty good at 30 and 50 yards, but seem to drop off alot between 75 and 100 yards. I have them pretty much zero'd at 50 yards. They seem to be dropping about 4-6" at 85 yards.(distance by rangefinder)

What does everyone else experience while shooting them?
Those are the slugs I shoot out of my Winchester 1300, and up to 75 yards they work very well accuracy wise. But going to 100 yards, they are all over the paper???? I've since bought a new rifle for Catt. Co., so I can have that accuracy that I want up to 200 yards away!!
