    Slugs for hogs?

    I am from originally from western NY. Where shot guns are all that is allowed. And many deer have fallen to the 12 ga smooth bore. Usually a practical range is 75 yards with a smooth bore.

I plan on using the gun for deer/hog hunting this fall. Is 240 grain factory ammo enough or should I go larger and if how...
