I want to get a Mossberg 500, nylon stock and 18.5 IC primarily for HD. I occasionally get talked into going deer hunting with some friends. In years past i have used a smooth bore with rifled slugs with reasonable success.
My question:
Would that setup...with a red dot scope or similar...be an OK rig for slug hunting? Or will I loose alot of accuracy with the 18.5" barrel.
I know the optimal setup would be a rifled slug barrel....but I would use it so seldom, Im not sure I can justify buying the extra barrel.
SO.....what do you think???
