Default Long Range Shotgun Kills. The H&R Ultra Slug

In 1999 I bought a gun for one specific purpose. To get me out across the winter wheat fields of the restricted shotgun zone in Huron County Michigan.

The H&R Ultra Slug 12 Gauge-

Since 1999 I have harvested 27 white-tails with this gun. I have never lost a deer with this weapon. Ask Shultzy. I'm a man of my word.

Honestly, If you're in a shot gun area and you want to reach out and touch something. Stay with me and read the rest of this story.

Here's how it works...and you need to follow these steps.

1) By a H&R Ultra Slug 12 Gauge
2) Vise the gun at the range in zero wind conditions.
3) Buy federal Barnes, Remington, Winchester, Or Hornady SST's (These are the 1900 fps or 2000fps with the Hornady
4)Sight the gun in at 3 inches high at 100 yards & Zero at 150 yards
5) By a range finder and learn the bullet trad. out to 200 yards.
6) Never flinch and squeeze gently, always have a good rest when you shoot at a deer.

You will consistently kill deer out to 200 yards with this set-up.

AND...Never...ever...ever...leave for the woods without your range finder...when you learn the gun...then you need to tell the gun where to aim..and the range finder is where its at...its not complicating from 0- 150 yards...it just takes knowledge from 150 - 200. Read the box of your ammo..6 inch drop at 200 with zero at 150

I shot this doe at 198 yards with my Hornady SST's 300gr. H&R 12 & a Nikon range finder in hand. I aimed on the spine with my 2X7 Leoupold and hit the doe in the shoulder.

It is truly amazing. Here's my 200 yard doe.

Squeeze...don't flinch...be rested...look for winds under 8 mph.

I agree...My buddy wanted to borrow my H&R last week and I told him no problem....I still told him to shoot it first. One mans gun could be another mans misery. He shot it..and took a 6 pt on Sunday. Good for him.

Thanks for posting this!

I have sighted in my Ithaca Deerslayer @ 150 yards for probably 4-5years now shooting the Partition Gold slugs. I've been called all sorts of crazy claiming to be ready for a 200yrd shot, but thats thier loss. I just happen to hunt in the woods and usually get closer shots...

My little bro took a deer at about 210yards about 3 years ago...maybe 4 now with his shotgun & Partition Gold slugs.

"glad im not the only crazy one..."

I beleive it those H&R's are "Hell raisers" i have a 20gauge and shot the winchester shells and i could make a 200 yrd..without a problem i believe..those guns are something else..
