L Laker New member Jan 4, 2012 #1 OK, not going to ask the Ford or Chevy question. Mine is, can I shoot a deer slug through a non rifled barrel? If so, will there be any problems with regular shells afterwards?

O oneounceload Moderator Jan 4, 2012 #4 Sabot slugs are for rifled barrels, regular ones for smoothbores
L Laker New member Jan 4, 2012 #5 OK, I think I got it now. Deer slugs in a smooth bore, are good to go.
N NCSU08MS3 New member Jan 4, 2012 #6 It's simple; if the slug is rifled shoot it through a smooth bore, if the slug is not rifled shoot it through a rifled barrel. A picture is worth a thousand words: Shoot through rifled barrel: Shoot through smooth-bore barrel: Phillip
