Default RE: Max effective range with rifled slugs vs. ...

Personally, it would depend on which barrel type I had on. If I had a smoothbore barrel, I'd want to be Brenneke slugs, and I wouldn't want to be shooting much over 50 yards. Rifled choke; I'd be shooting Lightfield Hybred slugs, and 50-75 yards would be my limit; with a fully rifled barrel, I'd be looking for one of the slugs in the 1900-fps range, such as the Winchester Supreme, Hornady XTP, or Remington Core-Lokt Ultra. I'd be using 100 yards as a top limit; more if I had a scope, and I practiced a lot.
