Slug guns?

One last question. Anyone use the rifled choke tubes? Like the Carlson, they advertise 1:35 twist. Are they worth buying to play with for hogs?

Thank for all the good information shared here.

A rifled choke tube will help stabilize a slug and improve accuracy with the right load. Plus, like I said above, will add a little more distance. If you go that route, start the with standard velocity slugs. In most situations, slower twist rates work better with slower speeds.

Absolutely stay with standard velocity, I used a rifled choke tube before I had a rifled barrel & used standard velocity slugs. When the high velocity slugs hit the market I found they were not stable with the rifled choke (at least that was my experience) so I ended up buying a rifled barrel shotgun.

Just a quick update. I found a Remington rifled barrel with a scope for 75.00 on one the facebook gun groups. Finally got to shoot it today. Wow, I was really surprised at the group at 100 yards. I was just shooting off the door of my truck and had 2 holes touching then a couple 3/4-1" out. I was shooting lightfileds, still have Hornady and Remington's got play with. Cant wait to put one in the shoulder of a big boar. Man thats a chunk of lead

Sound's like you found a great deal. Go ahead and shoot some other slugs, there is a big variety to choose from now.

But, it sound's like the lightfield is a good match.
