Good question. Since the answer depends on the barrel elevation angle, bullet shape, weight, and ballistic coefficient, the best way to answer this is to have you do an online search on the words, "ballistic calculator". You will find several sites that let you enter those variables and will give you the answer you seek.

Will a 410 gauge rifled slug kill a whitetail deer and if so what is the maximum range?
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Will_a_410_guage_rifled_slug_kill_a_whitetail_deer_and_if_so_what_is_the_maximum_range"Yes a 410 gauge with slug will kill a whitetail deer. In fact if you are under 50 yards or less, this gun is very effective. One problem seen by Division of Wildlife officials is that many hunters, out of the gun season will shoot a deer with this type shotgun, then stick a arrow into the carcass to try to fool everyone. But a trained eye can usually detect this.Yes, a 410 gauge rifled slug will easily kill a deer. Make sure your marksmanship is great and stay away from the shoulders, or other bones. They loose their energy quick so get to practicing and have fun.
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.

Can you shot a deer slug out of a 410?
You can, but a .410 slug is quite slow. It barely has the adequate energy to take a whitetail from the muzzle. If it was totally necessary, i'd say a max of 50 yards aiming at the vitals. The worst part about this is that some slugs can be inaccurate.

It's not rifled because it is a shotgun. It is most likely a Stevens product made c. 1920-1950.
Can you get a different barrel for a H and R model 088 20 gauge shotgun like 12 or 16 or .410 or a rifle barrel or a rifled slug barrel?
Take a look here:http://www.e-gunparts.com/productschem.asp?chrMasterModel=1560z88To the best of my knowledge the model 88 receiver is identical regardless of chambering, so any of the barrels should work.
