RE: Westernfield
I'm no expert but I've shot slugs out of mine before. That being said, I would not shoot slugs out of it again because the steel used to make the barrel is very thin and mine is a full choke. That just spells trouble. If yours has an improved choke I would say it is more safe to shoot slugs out of yours than mine.Just take a rifled slug out of the shell and put it up against the muzzle to see what it has to compress down to when it exits the muzzle, something has to give and I sure don't want it to be the barrel.
