I was into a dispute today at work. I was outvoted so I said I let it go but the consensus was that shooting slugs out of shotgun was "hard" on the shotgun and would cause premature wear in the barrel and action. The gun in question was a Remington 870.
For me I was not buying it. Possibly shooting rifled slugs out of a rifled barrel may cause some wear on the rifling if you shot it lot; but just shooting slugs I don't think would cause the gun to require maintenance earlier than usual. Am I wrong? Any thoughts?
