Guns that shoot slugs are specially designed for slugs. It depends on your gun but most are not designed for this purpose I do not recommend testing it for if they are not the right barrels they WILL break.
with the wingmaster barrel you can only shoot lead, but if you change the barrel to a slugster you can shoot slugs and buckshot, they also have a barrel for steel shot to.
yes for a shotgun you need a rifle barrel DO NOT shoot slugs if you have a poly-choke!
Yes. No problem
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.
Youve got the wrong gun If u want to shoot slugs get a air rifle or a slug gun
No.
Depends on what the barrel is choked.
no slugs should on be shot thru a improved cylinder shotgun. if you shoot thru any other choke it can cause the barrel to split
Improved-cylinder, or skeet barrel. "Modified or full-choke barrels (in any make gun) simply will not shoot slugs or buckshot as well as the more open chokes." --Edward A. Matunas; "Deer Hunter's Guide to Guns, Ammo and Equipment", 1983
Yes. Rifled slugs are intended to be fired through a smoothbore barrel. Sabot slugs are intended to be fired through rifled barrels.
Please dont shoot slugs through a 32" barrel A5. That is undoubtedly a full choke and shooting slugs through it can damage that barrel, which by itself is worth $300. Slug barrels are typically 24" in length with an Improved Cylinder choke.
Pellets or slugs. shotguns usually shoot shot or pellets, but you can shoot slugs. in Indiana we use a shotgun to hunt deer and use shotgun slugs, better to use a barrel with no choke in it. cylinder bore preferred.
