Can you shoot a shotgun without choke tube in?
Yes. Rifled slugs are intended for smoothbore barrels (abot slugs aer for RIFLED barrels). Best accuracy with rifled slugs is USUALLY a modified choke, but can be safely fired thru any choke less than EXTRA full choke.
Can you shoot a rifled slug through a smooth bore barrel with a smooth choke tube on the end?
Rifled slugs are made of soft lead purposely for use in smooth bore shotguns. Actually the "rifling" on the slug deforms to allow the slug to pass through the choke in the bore. If your firearm is of modern manufacture and in good condition it should be safe. Of course it goes without saying that you must use the appropriate type (i.e 2-3/4", 3", etc.) and gauge (410, 20, 12 etc.) of ammunition for which your firearn was designed. If in doubt, have a reputable gunsmith check it out for you.
What choke is advised to use with a smooth bore barrel and rifled slugs?
Its called a slug choke you can buy them a Cabelas, Bass Pro Shop, probably online in a bunch of places, and walmart might sell them but try elsewhere first. **************** A rifled slug may safely be fired through any choke except 3- an "extra full" choke, which is non-standard, used in turkey shoots- or a variable choke- the fingers of the choke may be broken by a slug- and last- ANY shotgun that the maker says not to use slugs. Some are "overbored"- barrel inside diameter larger than usual- and slug can get a bit sideways. MODIFIED usually give best accuracy, but will vary from gun to gun.
Will a Remington 1100 shoot a slug?
rifled choke tubes for sabot slugs and cylinder or improved cylinder choke tube for foster type slugs. you can shoot slugs with semi-auto. experiment to find what cycles the best without jamming.
Can you shoot a rifled slug through a rifled barrel?
Rifled Slugs are meant for smooth bore barrels mainly. The rifled slug is made of lead and so if you shoot it through a rifled barrel the lead touching the rifling will cause some of the lead to peal off and can build up over a very short period of time. Also the facft that you are shooting a rifled slug through a rifled barrel would cause the bullet to become extremely unstable and inaccurate. Rifle barrel sare meant for sabot slugs (slugs with a plastic wad surrounding the outside). You should eb good though to shoot a rifled slug out of your barrel with a mod choke tube, but smooth bore deer barrels are ideal.M.I.
Can you shoot a slug out of a 20 gauge poly choked barrel?
Let's be logical about this. Is an ammo manufacturer going to make something that is going to make your barrel explode if you forget to put the right choke tube in? Probably not...My dad had a Savage-Stevens single shot 16ga. with a full choke (back in the day when there weren't choke tubes) that he fired "Foster style" slugs through frequently. The barrel never exploded and the gun is still in good condition today.I learned to wing-shoot with it and witnessed deadly accurate slug placement at 50 yards.Let's look at the facts.1. There are different kinds of slugs and different kinds of barrels.2. Don't shoot your shotgun with the choke tube removed, unless you want to risk damaging the threads.3. Slugs are NOT the same diameter as the bore. For "Foster style" slugs, the ones typically called "rifled slugs" like the Remington Sluggers are best fired through an Improved Cylinder choke (slightly smaller that the bore). If you don't believe me...READ THE BOX. "Rifled slugs may be fired through any choke; however, improved cylinder provides best results. These slugs will also perform well in fully rifled barrels and barrels fitted with rifled choke tubes" (Remington Slugger box).4. Sabot slugs are designed to be fired through a rifled slug barrel. They should not be fired through anything else or they may fly like a football thrown without any "spiral". Having that slug just tumbling through the air...not good.5. There are some slugs designed for either rifled or smooth. Rottweil-Brenneke makes such slugs, which I have used personally in both rifled and smooth barrels with success. "The choke does not have a significant effect on the precision of this cartridge; it can therefore be used for all popular shotguns"Note: The makers of some of the early variable chokes (Mossberg's C-Lect-Choke for one) did not reccomend shooting slugs through them- the choke consisted of small steel "fingers" that could be damaged. Modern choke tubes are made differently, and should be fine.
Can you fire a slug through a mossberg 535 turkey tactical shotgun equipped with a choke tube?
From Mossberg's website:"Can I shoot slugs or buckshot through a "smoothbore" field barrel with Accu-Choke™ tubes? (500/505/535/9200/88/930 models) Yes, and with sabots or rifled slugs, the more "open" the choke tube, the better the accuracy ("Improved Cylinder" recommended.) The "full" or "modified" choke tubes are preferred for buckshot loads. Slugs, buckshot and steel shot loads are not recommended for use with an extra full "turkey tube" installed, due to the tube's tight constriction. Do not fire any load without a choke tube installed, doing so will damage the internal choke tube threads. "
Can a 12 gauge Glenfield Model 778 shotgun be fitted with a slug barrel?
Answer the glenfield by marlin is compatible with marlin 120 12ga barrels are available for the 120 the only difference is the stocks wich are also interchangable the 120 is higher quality I love my glenfieldThat model is obsolete and you are not going to find a slug barrel. If you must use slugs, you can have the existing barrel modified to accept interchangeable choke tubes and use a rifled tube when shooting slugs.
Can you take out a full choke and then shoot a slug?

I have a Winchester Model 1400 with a WinChoke that I have shot a few dozen slugs out of until a friend told me to stop. Did I mess anything up since it still works and I quit shooting slugs?
The new rifled hollow point Winchester superX slugs shoots 2 3/4" 1600 velocity, 1oz. rifled slug hollow point, designed for use in smooth bore barrels. Leave the modified choke tube in the barrel, MY 1400 came from the factory with a modified choke, The choke only has a .020 thousands restriction in the barrel end. Trust me, it will shoot fine with these superX slugs or any slug you wish to use is fine.
