Nothing wrong with a Mossberg 500, they are very will proven over the years.....Today's Remington firearms are junk, older ones are great !!

what gauge are you getting?

If it's a 12ga stick with 2-3/4" sabot slugs
If it's a 20ga stick with 3" sabot slugs

You will need to try different brands to see that that barrel likes, but a good starting point would be Remington's Accutips, and the new Remington/Barnes sabots

Scope wise, no need to buy a "SHOTGUN ONLY" scope, purchase a rifle scope 3-9x40....I'm a Leupold fan and have them on almost all my slug guns and rifles....If on a budget a good scope is the Bushnell Trophy, it's clear, and can't go wrong for the price
