Wow. That's really impressive shooting. How's the shoulder? I typically start crying like a girl after about 5 slugs. Bravo!
Impressive
I'm a bit surprised as my experience when using a rifled slug with a rifled barrel or choke is problematic. Given that the rifling tends to compete with each other and puts unpredictable spin on the slug. Maybe it will show up at 100yards. I always use a non rifled slug when using a rifle barrel or rifled choke tube. Just my observations and experience. But maybe at 50 or less yards its not big deal.
I wouldn't think so
Thank you for doing the work. You have really helped us.
Great video. Thanks for being honest about flinching.
Wow , that choke tube made a big difference
Shoulda shot some sabots
you can always "walk" a group into the ideal target placement but you first need to find the projectile the weapon "likes" to give the tightest group. This applies to firearms as well as archery although the latter is more difficult to achieve with lower powered equipment.
Have you ever done accuracy tests with saboted shotgun slugs through a rifled shotgun barrel?
5 years old and still a good video.
So with the barrel heating up, that might open up your group. I would like to see just 2 round shots, wait to cool, then 2 more. I would do it like that because you will be lucky to get off just one extra shot on a deer, and I care more about cold bore accuracy, awesome video though. I'm talking about the smooth bore group though, it might be more finicky.
Forgive me if this is covered in the comments but didnt have time to read 1000 comments but have you done any tests to see if you gain flat distance between the two..thanks
That is impressive shooting.
Great video, thanks for doing that. Question, are you getting decent groups still out to 100 yards?
You have to find right slugs for gun try other brands of slugs to what you're gun like some bubby told me that
Excellent video, well done. Thank you.
a lot of the time, it's not that people struggle with basic things – rather, it's they've not had the opportunity in life to experience logic and reason in every day life.
you have good videos.
That's weird. I thought they would interfere with each other. Anyway, why pay for rifled slugs when you already have a rifled choke?
Wow, wow, wow, impressive indeed
Tried my Carlson tube this weekend and it performed awesome with 3 different brands of ammo, Brenneke, Rem. Slugger, and Fed. 1oz tactical. Shot out of a MAC 1014 18.5 barrel.
A lot of people don’t understand the difference between shooting for a group and zeroing, try to do both at the same time and wind up with neither
Good stuff man ! Was looking for exactly what you posted. Got a regular ol smooth bore shotgun that I bought a Carlson rifled choke tube so I could shoot some special ammo I had and thought that rifled slugs should do good by it too. Then started reading all my boxes of rifled slugs and none of them said that a rifled choke tube is what they need. Figured that has to be wrong …and your video proves just that ! Can’t wait to go shoot mine and see how much better it shoots 🤞🍀
That is amazing thank you
At 11:00, 3 slugs, same hole. So, yes, rifled slugs with a rifled choke does improve accuracy.
Excellent video
I used the same choke tube with my 870 and got much worse groups with it compared to the modified smooth choke tube.
Love it, master in no time.
Impressive
Can't argue with results… great video!
Well he's taking forever for a shot so you must be shaking like a leaf and you dont have a sandbag when your deer hunting another youjew moron
Well for you people who don't hunt you wouldn't know
Wow, that really improved the accuracy, I'm surprised.
That's about the same size as your fingers it looks like a 3 inch choke tube
Looks like a sunrise for the shooting. Beautiful place ol' boy😊
Funny (odd) that we’d shoot rifled slugs through a rifled choke tube.
Are the groups similar shooting slugs (non rifled) through the rifled choke tube?
I shoot a Savage 212 rifled shotgun with sabot slugs (Hornady), but I have a smooth bore Beretta that I could put a rifled choke on.
Muy bueno.. Felicitaciones.
SOLD. 20 gauge version though.
What an excellent video. I've never had a scoped shotgun. I've always set them up as multipurpose. I did not know about rifled chokes until today. That is some excellent shooting. You would be very sub moa with a proper rifle shooting that well. That is a real nice lawn. I grew up maintaining a lawn similar to that. I understand how it takes a full day every week to keep it that way. Now that I live in the high desert, I will never see a lawn like that again. Leaves more time for fishing.
I know what you mean about people not understanding basic things. And a lot of them vote too, scary!
Just rewatching this today. At 100 yards you would probably be right on.
No choke is preferred with Slugs and Flight Control Buckshot …..Cylinder Choke Tube
I knew you were the real deal when you put a scope on, to get good data. Kudos to the scientific method.
This might be weird, but i Wonder how that would work on Mini shells?
This might be a serious asset to something Like a Truck gun.
