RE: Are 200 yd slug guns ethical to dispatch a deer?
I've seen it done before, but I would think 200 yards is just about the max and pushing what a shotgun to do to the limits. The shotgun is probably the most versatile gun out there but everything has it's limitations and it's just not a great platform for anything really long range as of yet. Rest assured that there are ammo specialists out there working on that everyday.
