	Slug barrel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A slug barrel is a barrel for a shotgun that is designed primarily to fire slugs.
		When slugs are fired in a standard, choked barrel, the slug is deformed by the choke as it exits.
		The first slug barrels were cylinder bore barrels (no choke) outfitted with rifle sights, which are far better suited to accurate shooting of still targets than the standard bead sight used for shooting small, moving targets with shotshells.

	Mounting device for sight viewing apparatus - Patent 5046277
		The mounting device of claim 8 further comprising, in combination: a recess formed in the bottom surface and intersecting with the dovetail groove, with the bolt located in the recess, with the recess being of a size and shape complementary to and for straddling the apparatus requiring sighting or aiming adjacent to the sight ramp.
		Slug barrel ramps 162 are dove tail shaped and integrally formed on the slug barrel and extending at an angle therefrom.
		In use, device 160 is attached to the slug barrel by sliding groove 184 down ramp 162 until recess 164 straddles the shotgun barrel.

		Additionally, some slugs are so slow that with a longer barrel the shooter would be flinching from recoil before the slug has exited the barrel, thus causing operator induced inaccuracy.
		Barrels with a screw-in rifled choke tube can also benefit from using sabot slugs but not to the extent that a fully rifled barrel will.
		Hunters using a smooth bore barrel will be best served by conventional (Foster style) slugs, sometimes referred to as “rifled slugs.” Firing a rifled slug through a rifled barrel will result in the rifling of the barrel and the rifling on the slug working against each other.

	Burnt Latke - Combustion Launchers
		This barrel was too long and the slug was not able to escape past the muzzle.
		Accuracy is probably not this barrels strong point as many of the tumbling slugs were found lodged backwards into the carpet backstop.
		This barrel was the least accurate and actually hit the chronograph wire on one shot.

	Are You Using the Right Slug for Your Shotgun?
		The answer as to why they are shorter than regular smooth barrels for other types of hunting is that the amount of rifling in the 18-20 inches of barrel is at its maximum potential in aiding the slug for accuracy.
		Once all the powder is burned and the slug reaches terminal velocity (and the rifling has imparted spin to the slug), the barrel's job is done.
		Slugs are a wonderful and ethical tool to use in hunting deer in places where rifles are not allowed.

	Dave McCracken, others, your opinions please for 870 slug barrel - THR
		Most slug barrels are in the 21" range, so the ammo is loaded to get most if not all of its velocity in that length.
		Sabot slugs are expensive, and several different brands/types and lengths need to be tested out of your barrel to find what is suitable for your needs.
		I realize that FORSTER type slugs can be fired from a rifled barrel, but I certainly wouldn't suggest it because in my limited experience, (Mossy 9200 w/ fully rifled barrel) barrel leading gets severe with just a few round fired, accuracy deteriorates and cleaning the barrel becomes a chore.

		Using the enclose forceps, remove the smallest diameter slug from the tray and liberally grease the slug with the enclosed slug lubricant.
		At this point the slug is forming to the diameter of the bore and this is where the distortion of the driven side of the slug occurs.
		If the slug is Perfectly Engraved and clearly marked by both the lands and grooves, then measure the slug at it’s widest point using a micrometer or caliper to determine the groove diameter of this barrel.

	The 410 slug (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		A fixed cylinder bore allows the slug to expand to bore diameter in the forcing cone and then exit the barrel with no changes to the slugs size or contact patch with the barrel through the entire trip down the barrel.
		Many manufactures make their slugs significantly under size to ensure that their slug passes through a tight choke with the least likelihood of overstressing even the thinnest and oldest of shotgun barrels.
		A slug that is already close to or even just slightly larger than bore diameter will give the least distortion as the slug expands to bore diameter and thus add to the accuracy.

	Rifled Slug Barrel (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		I know guys who use the rifled slugs in them and just clean up the mess, but I just have to think there would be some accuracy issue with the twist rate, tewist dierection, or just plain tearing up of the outside of the slugs with two different rifleing trying to steer the same projectile.
		Rifled slugs are probably the most dangerous type of ammunition to use in a wooded area crowded with hunters, as they plow through visually impenetrable brush, leaves, and small tree limbs with aplomb.
		The pathetic.410 rifled slug is generally inferior in both projectile weight and terminal performance to the lowly.380 ACP pistol cartridge--often despairingly referred to as a "mouse gun." The less said about these sub-12 gauge rifled slugs the better.

	Slug Guns for Deer (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Whatever the reason for looking at slug guns in the first place, hunters soon realize that the range and accuracy of today's slug guns, sights and ammunition is phenomenal, particularly when compared to the "pumpkin balls" and bead sights of old.
		Traditional slugs, also known as Foster-style slugs, were designed for smoothbore shotguns, which allow the skirt of a lead projectile to contact the barrel.
		Later, rifled slugs were developed that were somewhat more accurate, but it wasn't until sabot ammunition was introduced that slug hunting became a serious concept for many deer hunters.

	Sportsman Forum -> Rifle Slug Barrels VS Smooth Bore
		Anyway when you use slugs, a smooth bore short barrel, you never know where the slug is going to hit a deer.
		If you are going to use a shotgun for a deer make sure that it has a rifled barrel and that the barrel is longer then 20 inches.
		The smooth bore 20 inch cylinder barrel was made for shooting down your hallway with buckshot in it not slugs.

	December, 97 GGG Upgrade
		The Slug Group, an aftermarket shotgun distribution company in Pennsylvania, struck out heartily in recent years with its Competitor and Predator rifled slug barrels.
		Shotgun barrels are notorious for sloppy fit, which means nothing when you’re throwing a load of shot at a pheasant or turkey, but is an absolute evil on a rifle range.
		A surprising number of rifled shotgun barrels have burrs at the muzzle or are unevenly polished in the mass-production frenzy.

	Outdoor Forums: 12 gauge shotgun slugs for fully rifled barrels
		I do not have a riffled slug barrel and was planning to use a rifled choke.
		Regular sabot slugs tend to distort a little after the ride down the smooth bore and slamming into the rifling in the choke tube, but they still shoot better from a screw on rifled tube than a smooth bore.
		Do not try using the foster slugs meant for smooth bores with a rifled barrel or rifled choke tube, as leading will be a problem and accuracy won’t be as good as it should be.

	Rifled Slug Barrel
		The use of slugs is best confined to single barrel shotguns, either single shot or repeaters.
		Brenneke rifled slugs still use felt and fiber wads, and are suitable for use in smooth or rifled shotgun barrels.
		The Fiocchi Trophy slug weighs 1 ounce in 2 3/4" 12 gauge shells, and 7/8 ounce in 2 3/4" 20 gauge shells.

	HuntAmerica.com: 20 gauge slug gun?
		Keep in mind that sabot slugs are more expensive to shoot and a rifled barrel shotgun should not be used with the Foster slugs or birdshot.
		The 24-inch rifled barrel (1-in-35 twist) is threaded to the receiver and held by a locking collar a la the 110 rifle.
		Like their rifle forebears, neither the Savage nor Browning bolt slug guns have sights—a unique concession to the fact that scopes are essential on today’s rifled barrel slug guns.

		For any slug hunter who yearns for a slug gun that handles and shoots like a fine rifle, the TC Encore is the slug gun for him.
		I have a requirement for a fixed barrel because it is my experience with a large number of pumps and semi-autos that the "play" between the barrel and action is a significant source of inaccuracy.
		I really think the play between reciever and barrel is a non-issue and overblown,unless you are going to be swapping the barrel quite frequently and don't want to re zero.

	Shot guns and slugs. Gun experts needed!! [Free Republic]
		The two guys I was sighting-in with were both using rifled barrels and sabot slugs, and I was staying right up with them.
		A full choke is not recommended for use with slugs, but modified, improved cylinder or cylinder chokes are all okay for use with slugs.
		A rifled choke (a misnomer, as it isn't "choked"), as opposed to a rifled barrel is less expensive, but groups will expand to 10 to 12 inches at 80 yards, and tend to go wild at 100 yards, particularly for the inexperienced shotgunner.
