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. "
That will depend on whether the choke tube is rated for steel shot or not.
Yes. Standard chokes should be OK. Extra full chokes, on modern turkey guns, no.
Extra full
That will depend on whether the choke tube is rated for steel shot or not.
Can you Yes, should you NO. a full choke should not be used to shoot slugs.
No.
Depends on the choke. MOST chokes, including full choke, can safely fire slugs. Some makers of adjustable chokes recommend that slugs NOT be fired thru their chokes. A very few chokes, such as the Extra Full chokes used on some turkey guns should not be used for slugs.
With standard chokes, Full Choke is the tightest. However, there are non-standard chokes for SOME shotguns (used by turkey hunters) that are Extra Full Choke.
