Default RE: Slug Question

It very simply comes down to this. This gentleman just acquired a new rifled barrel. He is not very familiar with slug guns. He asked our recommendation on whether he should shoot rifled slugs. We know nothing about his gun or his maintanence habits.
To simply answer him "yes" would be doing him a great disservice. Why would anyone want this man, to sit at home cleaning lead fouling out of his barrel, when there is absolutely no reasonable reason to do that? Why? So he can shoot a substandard projectile down his brand new barrel?
With todays available ammunition choices, good judgement says NO..
