RE: slugs or buckshot
First of all considering that it's legal to shoot slug's and 00 Buck ,I think you have to take into consideration on where your hunting .If your hunting in a thick brushy area I would go with 00 Buck but if your hunting mostly in an open area I would go with the slug's .I used to go with a slug up front and 2 00Buck in the rear for this exact reason ,it's easy to dis chamber the slug if your in tight bush and use the 00buck, but if you are walking into an open area your slug is readely available for you. 00Buck work's great in all situation's but is even better in tight area's than slug's are.
