Thank You soooo much for putting all your time and energy into making this video!! Well done! I have the savage 220 and Love it!! I do a lot of bench rest shooting n hunting etc. I have shot all 3 of the Premium slugs. The Winchester Partition Gold, Remington Accutip and the Ferderal Premium all in 3 inch shells. They all shot very well from 1 1/4 inches to 2 inches at 100 yards. The trouble I'm having is I'm not getting the trajectory they say I should be getting? I'm sighted in 3 1/2 inch high at 100 Yds. But its waaaay lower than 8 inch at 200 yds. (like the ammo box per-dicks?) I've read your one comment about using a bar on your Ziess Z800 is perfect for that 300 yard shot( I don't have one) But that's all cool. But I do have a great scope on it. I'd love to know the full trajectory on these bullets flight out to 300 Yds?? Maybe use the 260gr. 3 inch.as your example. So I can make clean kills on deer at that range or a little closer, it won't matter, the distance, if I know what the total flight is. If you would like to use a zero at 150 yards, that would be great as well. Nowhere can I find this chart. I,ve been shooting quite a few rounds out to 250 yds but its getting expensive and I'm at 10 inches high at 100 yds now, just to be 5 inches low at 200 yds. ?? There,s got to be a better way! I'm worried the animal will be out of my sight picture at 300 yards cause of the hold over required. lol Otherwise I will do it all by so many clicks on my scope etc. I just need the trajectory. This slug really drops fast after 150 yds, all good as long as you know how to adjust for it. I can't just enter the Ball. Coefficient, weight and speed cause these barrels are much shorter than 26 inches. So I doubt I,m getting 1900 fps even with the 3 inch shell. I appreciate all the work you have put into this, not only for our benefit but for animals, quick clean kills! If you think its better to have a different zero than please suggest that as well, what ever you feel is best!! Outstanding!! Thanks Sincerely Dearl
I'm not trying to ask a silly question so please forgive me if it is silly but, what is the advantage of using a 20 gauge slug over a rifle cartridge? If the video purpose is to demonstrate the effectiveness of the 20 gauge slug then yes, I did learn something new, thanks!
awesome… I use the same slug, killed a deer, head shot, running away at 193 yards… shotguns shoot a LOT further then most folks think.. they just don't want to take the time to map out their trajectory.. good shooting… I sub'd, sub my channel back please
Very unethical to fire into a group of deer. But with practice you could make that shot with just about any gun. I can use my muzzle loader at that distance because I have practiced. Look up I think his name is bob mundane doing a 200 or 300 yard shot with a stub nosed pistol. Don’t get me wrong these are great shots. But you sure in you gun at that distance and you can make these shots
Good video. I suspect what some might be missing is all the time you spent at the range zeroing your bolt action slug gun to ensure you could hit reliably at 300 yards. The Remington Accutip, and other sabot slugs, have plenty of energy to kill a deer at 300 yards. Not every 20 gauge slug gun has the accuracy to place it on target at 300 yards. I would be curious what other slugs or shotguns you tested to sort out which one held the best group. Maybe some folks just don't like the fact that each of our United States sets their own hunting laws or maybe they just don't like hunting. Legal, ethical harvest. Three shots, three deer. Well done.
Awesome video! I witnessed my uncle take a doe at 300 with his 20ga. Very impressive. He had a lot of practice as well. I'm very confident between 150-200 with my 20ga. Btw we both shoot tc encores. A lot of people don't realize the accuracy of some of these slug barrels. The tc barrel is 28" (1:24 twist). It's funny also that a lot of people don't realize how long encore barrels are and they are still very compact guns! The break open action is much shorter than bolt or pump. Love that gun! Nice work guys!

This videos older. Have you found any ammo as of late 2018 that can compare or out perform 3in accutips?
Incredible shot. Awesome
What about a 20 gauge single barrel shotgun
I just bought the savage 220. How far off does the slug drop beyond 100-150 yards? I haven't had the chance to shoot it that far yet.
DettyOutdoors what kind of scope is on the savage 220?
What optic ?
Dumb question… Rifled 20 guage barrel right? No way a non rifled barrel can reach that far with that stopping power, right?
Funny how people eat hamburgers and bitch about hunters.Hunters eat venison burgers and buy deer tags to financially support wild life.

I have hunted 6 years with a "20" but the longest shot I ever tried was about 100 yards and it dropped in a heap. I got a lot of faith in my Ithaca.
Can barely hear you over the porn music

Legal, ethical harvest. Three shots, three deer. Well done.
I killed a doe earlier with my savage arms 220 20 gauge shooting sst slugs and dropped dead in her tracks at 200 yds. She went about 2 feet that's it.
How about turning music down genius.
Excellent! If only Santa would bring me one for Christmas.
You guys do realize you can hit a target at 300 yds with a 9mm or 45 ACP pistol?
Now in Ohio you're allowed to use a straight walled cartridge rifle
Totally amazing shots! Well done! You brought my confidence back up using a 20 gauge slug. Wow!
that 3rd deer was dead before her butt even hit the ground, if that isnt proof enough for all these pussies, i dont know what is.
Even the 20 packs a punch!!!!!!!
I love savage. But id pick a remington 870 slug gun. Just my personal preferents.
great vid but nix the background noise, very annoying.

Deer have no memories? IQ's are next to cows.
could the same slug but in 12 make that?
