For deer hunting this year I plan on using a Mossberg 500 12-gauge shotgun w/ rifled barrel.
I have some questions about ammo.
What slug loads can I (or should I) use? I am a bit confused on this issue. Some slugs have rifled grooves on them; some don't. I have also seen "sabot" slug loads for sale.
What's the best slug load to use, in your opinion? Can I safely use slugs w/ rifled grooves in my rifled barrel? Or should I stick to smooth slugs? What are the advantages & disadvantages to using a sabot round?
