I'm a member of another forum that discusses slugs/slug guns and many people are very pleased with the performance of these slugs from both an accuacy and on game performance standpoint (out of a wide variety of guns).  They remind me of Lightfield slugs in design and trajectory. 

That price is excellent too!  The cheapest I've seen these slugs is around $10.00 per box.

I'd give 'em a try and see what you think.

I've used them in my Model 11Rem auto loader with a 24" Hasting bbl best I could get was about 3-4" at 100 yards which is good enough for the price of them . I don't hunt much anymore with this gun but have a stash of ammo for it when needed.
