Yesterday, I became the proud owner of a Maverick Security 88. 18½ inch barrel with a 5-round magazine tube. I bought it at Academy Sports for $169.00 and I'm glad to finally have a HD shottie.
3 questions:
Does a standard Marverick 88 have a cylinder bore or improved cylinder?
What is a slug barrel?
I've researched the Cylinder bore. At 40 yards, 40% of shot would be in a 30" circle. Does this mean that firing a 15-pellet shell of buckshot would always put 6 pellets in the circle? I guess I asking is this a hard and fast rule? If not, what other forces, variables, etc. are in play here?
Thanks for your time,
