Default RE: Help deciding on slugs

johnl,

I shot a doe last year at 180 yards off hand with that gun, I ranged her before I shot with my yardage pro. I never imagined I would get that kind of range when I purchased the gun. I have the rifled barrel with the cantilever scope mount. Those winchester slugs produce 1900fps muzzle velocity the average slug produces around 1500fps. Now let me throw in a little disclaimer here, the gun doesnt shoot flat for 200 yards. I'm about 2.5" high at 50, 1.5" high at 100 and 3.5" low at 200. You have to know the range on your shoot and practice a lot to know exactly where your point of impact will be different ranges.
