You should check with the barrels manufacturer about it's ratings, but I've never seen a slug barrel that wouldn't handle lead slugs.
If you're talking about using shot shells...
Since shot is contained in a wad, it never actually touches the walls of the barrel as it travels down it. The shot won't damage the riffling in the barrel, but since a slug barrel doesn't have the same choke as a shot barrel, and the wad in a shot shell isn't designed to spin, the shot pattern is going to be messed up.
It's not a good idea.
What else can I help you with?

What is the design and function of a helical fin shotgun slug sabot?
A helical fin shotgun slug sabot is designed to stabilize and improve the accuracy of a shotgun slug by spinning it as it travels through the air. The helical fins create a rifling effect, similar to a bullet in a rifled barrel, which helps the slug maintain a straighter trajectory and hit the target more accurately.
Wondering if you can shoot a 200 and 50 grain rifle tip slug through your mossberg 500 will it damage your barrel it has the accu chock?
NEVER FIRE AMMUNITON IN A WEAPON NOT DESINGED FOR IT!!!!!!!!! In a shotgun, you fire shotgun slugs or shotshells, NOT rifle projectiles (unless using a sabot) In the case of a sabot, you MUST contact the Mossberg.
What results can be had shooting a sabot through a smooth bore shotgun barrel with a rifled choke tube?

Will sabot slugs shoot through a smooth bore barrel?
Yes. That's the only type of shotgun you should fire a sabot slug from. Rifled shotguns are intended for rifled slugs only. Actually, the opposite is true. Rifled slugs are preferred for smooth barreled shotguns. The 'rifling' on the slug is actually just fins that permit the slug to squeeze through the choke on the shotgun barrel. Sabot slugs are intended for rifled barrels, as they will give better accuracy. Some sabots may be used in smooth barrels, but you are paying more for sabots and not getting the accuracy you would get by using a sabot in a rifled barrel.
What type of 12 gauge slugs are ok through a smooth bore shotgun?
