I went to the range with my Remington 1187 slug gun topped off with a Leupold 3x9 40mm Shotgun/muzzy rifleman scope. This was the first time i went with my new scope. I am shooting 2 3/4 inch lightfield slugs. Here are some pics of the sighting in process.

This pic is at 50 yards. First i centered it and then raised it about 2 inches.

This pic is 100 yards. I was very happy with the results.

Most of my shots in NJ are under 100 yards. I hunted the Mid west this year (Nov 2008) and had shots over 100 yards. I would like to get try some different slugs that shoot flatter out 150 yards or more. The lightfields have a significant drop after 100 yards.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
