Heres my boggle. I have access to a small shotgun only area. I havent hunted it as i dont have slug slinger. Ive been looking at a few and considered purchase but not sure how much id actually use it. I have my old 500 20gauge which is been great dove quail squirrel etc.... I thought hmmm let me run a slug just to see could it suffice at say 50 yards. I bought a couple boxes of cheap slugs while gander had sale. I put up a 15x20 cardboard target at 50 yds. 2 shots nada zip nothing? So i move to 25 yards wow hits target way low and right ugggh this aint gonna work. Should i try different slug or is the bird gun just simply not a slug slinger ? It doesnt have to be a sniper rifle but has to at least hit an 6 inch circle at 50 yards for what id need it for in the given location. Kinda bummed i may just have to get a dedicated shotgun. I could buy another barrel but foe the price of one id just as well get whole gun. Heck when i was kid my old single shot stevens 20 bore was fine with slug out to say 80 yards or so it wae all i had and took plenty of deer in its day. Penny for your thoughts.
