I have the Encore with a 12 ga. slug barrel and the 50 caliber M/L.  

Slug Barrel likes the Lightfield Commander IDS 3" Magnum Slugs the best.  All shots were touching at 50 yards.  Simmons scope gave up the ghost (went fuzzy) so I never got to shoot at 100 yards.    
 
Muzzle velocity is (as stated on the box) is 1800 ft/sec for the 1 1/16 oz (465 grain) sabot slug.  The recoil is stout but manageable with a SIMS Recoil Pad.  

Federal Hyra-Shock and Rotweill Gold Slugs were second best in accuracy.   I must have sent 125 slugs (even some hand loads) down the barrel before discoverying the Lightfields.
