Can an 870 slug barrel be used with a Remington Sportsman pump?

Hi I took and 870 Barrel and had gas ports drilled into barrel and it works.. I'm not sure that Remington would approve but you might check it out with a gunsmith and get his opinion. Again I did it but that doesn't make it right so I recommend you run it by a gunsmith and see if see a problem.. I did with a slug barrel 20 years ago and have not had any…

Almost every gun shop worth its salt should have a slug barrel for the remington model 870,if not then they should be able to order one with no problem.

11 - 48 slug barrel

HR Ultra slug for sure.

i have a remington 870 wingmaster its my grandpas and it has 3 barrels the slug , the bird shot barrel and the muzzeloader barrel it takes a 209 primer just like the the regular muzzeloader its very interesting

i have a 12 gauge unrifled barrel 500 model.what type of slug do you reccomend for the mossberg

Remington 870 pump loaded with "OO" buckshot or rifled slug

Is it a sportsmaster .22?? If it is i can tell you.

Yes; however, the Remington Coppersolid slug is designed for shotguns with fully rifled barrels. A rifled barrel is not standard on the 1300 Defender but is available as a replacement. The Coppersolid slug can be fired from a 1300 with a standard smooth bore barrel, but long range accuracy will suffer.

No, as long as you use rifled slugs, sabots are for rifled barrels. Some people will say that a slug will harm a full choke barrel, I have shot them out of a full choke Remington model 10 for years with no damage, I don't think I would do it out of a xx-full choke though.

Yes you can. Lead Shot is Lead Shot. I shoot all kinds of different sizes of shot out of my Mossberg and Remington Shotguns. What you do not want to do is shot a slug out of barrel made for shot. Get a rifled barrel for that.

yes , i have done this, i couldn't find a 3 inch slug barrel so i put on a 2 3/4 inch one and it worked fine, but Remington said no, guess that's their liability answer.

i would say between 500-800 dollars in good condition

That is correct.

Firing lead shot through a slug barrel will not damage the barrel. The rifling will distort the shot pattern and you will get less than desireable results.

A shotgun barrel with rifling.

A rifled slug- yes.

Between 500 to 700 dollars depending on condition and location

The amount of constriction at the muzzle

Remington 12 gauge 3" "OO" Buckshot and Rifled slug

Look for a similar gun on www.gunbroker.com and that should give you a relatibely accurate valuation.

The improved barrel should handle slugs with no problem, although it will not be quite as accurate as a slug barrel.

yes a rifled shotgun barrel or smooth shotgun barrel

Yes, that is why they rifled the barrel.

Try gunbroker.com in the barrel section.

No such model in the Remington line.

any kind will kill a deer but if you have a smooth barrel than u need smooth slugs if you have a rifled barrel you need a rifled slug

In the most general of terms, slug barrels are rifled and regular barrels are smooth bore. Both are capable of shooting slugs.

A Rossi 20 gauge single shot shotgun can fire any factory-made rifled slug, as long as the barrel is marked Modified, IC, or Cylinder. If it's marked Full, it may be too tight for some slugs. Remington Slugger is a suitable brand.

Shooting rifled slugs is the ONLY way to shoot thru a smoothbore for deer. If you shoot sabot slugs thru a smoothbore, it will not spin and therefore not be accurate. For accuracy, the slug must spin out of the barrel. Either shoot a rifled slug thru a smooth barrel, or shoot a saboted slug thru a rifled barrel.

NOPE. with out rifling, be it barrel or slug itself, there would be no spin on the slug. You would have minimal accuracy.

Yes: A Remington 870 shotgun with a modified choke will shoot any commercial shotgun slug.

Rifled slugs can be shot however the rifling on the slug can grind off and fill in the rifling in the barrel. A normal slug or a saboted is best

I wouldn't. This could destroy the choke and expand the barrel.

Yes, rifled slugs will not damage a rifled barrel. Rifled slugs were originally designed so that they would shoot through any size choke and cause damage to the barrel.

Yes and no. The yes comes from simple fact, if the projectile can move down the barrel, it can be fired. I've seen .221 Fireballs fired out of a 7TCU barrel. The no is because you cannot do it well. In effect, if you shoot a slug down a smooth bore shotgun barrel, you will have little in the way of accuracy. Slugs should be shot from a slug barrel, and shot from a smooth…

In general, rifled slugs are intended to go through a smooth bore. The twist rates of a rifled slug against a rifled barrel may not agree. If you were trying to get the best out of your rifled barrel I would think that going to a saboted slug would give better performance.

nah it doesnt have to be a deerslayer at all. the featherlight is completley compatible with a slug barrel in a 20 guage magnitude. :D

You probably could, but if you were trying to get the best out of your rifled barrel I would think that going to a saboted slug would give better performance. In general, rifled slugs are intended to go through a smooth bore and the twist rates of a rifled slug against a rifled barrel may not agree.

You can but it won't be as accurate as a rifled slug It will tumble instead of spin

Yes. Slug barrels have a different "Choke" then shot barrels that make them more accurate when firing slugs, but you can fire slugs with a stock 1200 barrel.

There are millions of870 Wingmasters available, and therefore this gun will not appreciate significantly with age. Depending on the condition of the metal and wood parts, this gun would sell for between 200 and 400 US dollars.

Yes, but they are usually more accurate from a slug barrel or improved cylinder.

At this time no,there are not any available.You could have a model 1300 slug barrel redone and have the gas ports added to this barrel.Then it will work fine in your model 1400 Winchester shotgun.

As long as the slug barrel is smooth bored(does not have rifling) then it can be used with bird shot.

They don't make one for that gun.

Best left to a gunsmith

You did not specify the make of your Model 300 (there are several), but in general, a 12 g shotgun CAN fire slugs from any standard barrel. You will get better accuracy from a slug barrel, but you could use any barrel OTHER than an "Extra Full", or a shotgun with a variable choke.

No. The lead of the shot is MUCH softer than the steel of the barrel. However, if you have a RIFLED slug barrel, expect poor accuracy with any shot load- the rifling will make the plastic shot cup spin, and as it leaves the barrel, centrifugal force will make the shot pattern open into a "doughnut" shape.
