RE: Slug gun

I use to use a Mossberg 12 Ga. Tropy Slugster with cantilever barrel, now use a 11/87 SP 12 Ga.with cantilever barrel have a Leupold VXIII 3.5x10 and it works great. I did have trigger reworked on it and I use Rem. Core-Lokt Ultra Slugs. I did just get my grandson a H&R 20 Ga. Ultra Slug youth model for Christmas, Sure hope it works fine in 2009.

RE: Slug gun

I'm gonna be a minority here but I shoot a Browning A-bolt slug gun. Caught it the year the quit making them and I get ragged one holers at 100 yards and have killed deer out to 150 with it hitting it dead nuts where I wanted the slug to go.

back up gun is a NEF 20 guage rifled single shot. Not the bull barrel. It shoots very well too

Remington 870. Fully rifled barrel (21 inch). Drilled & Tapped recently for a scope. Weaver Scope rings, Nikon ProStaff 2-7x32. 100 yards I am getting a 5 inch group.

Holy cow that doesn't sound too goodto me! Iown a mossburg 500 with a 24" smooth bore barrel shooting 2 3/4" remington slugger's and I get a 2.5" group at 100 yards with open sights! At 50 yards I can pretty much almost hit the same hole. I love my mossburg!

11-87 with rifled barrel, open sights. Couldn't believe how hard it was to find iron sighted barrel for a common shotgun anymore!! Shoots great, no blow-back issues with heavy recoiling slugs like I had with several pumps. If I am shooting far enough to need a scope, I take my muzzleloader anyways.

RE: Slug gun

Open sights are great are great for those blessed with good eye sight. As for me I need all the help I can get "Leupold".

I hear ya buddy......After surgery on both eyes the only way I can shoot a long gun is with a scope. I don't even want to tell you how bad my handgun shooting is..

My dad has a Browning A-Bolt slug gun. It's an awesome slug gun, to bad they don't make them anymore!

RE: Slug gun

Americaneagle your grandson won't be disappointed. Bought one for my son and put the nikon bdc slug scope on it works great. My son got a nice 9pt at 10yards this year on his first hunt.
