Quote: Do you actually have a shotgun that shoots rifled slugs accurately from both barrels, or is this part of the hypothetical question too? A German friend of mine had a 20G SXS made in Ferlach specifically regulated for slugs, but I suggest most factory made shotguns are not regulated for shooting slugs, they are set up to pattern shot from both barrels to a similar POA, the POA not so critical for shot patterns as it would be for slugs. If indeed you do already have a shotgun that regulates satisfactorily with slugs then the same gun sleeved to 577 BPE is not guaranteed to achieve the same regulation as a matter of course, it would almost certainly need to be specifically regulated. In reality a BPE conversion would not gain much over the better 12G slugs available today, depending of course on what slugs do regulate in the 12G SxS. Anyone coming across a double shotgun that regulates with good slugs has a goldmine and I would keep it that way. |
