slugs from 10ga
« on: January 05, 2007, 12:40:37 PM »
Can I shoot rifled slugs out of my full choke NEF 10ga.? I have a bunch of 10ga slugs that someone gave me and it seems a waste to throw them away. I am not talking about shooting deer with them, just for fun and maybe a coyote.

You sure can, with no damage to the gun at all, unless they are the real hard Dixie Slugs that are made specifically for a rifled barrel. All others will be fine to shoot, except perhaps for your shoulder...have a ball and enjoy yourself....<><... :).
