Interesting empty banter read on Shotgun World---
No objective testing of slugs on DG or slug penetration I found unless I missed it. The bad mouthing of people/Double rifles was very childish though.

Marrakai- I am in agreeement with your sentiments entirely.

Objectively-
I would certainly be of the opinion and logic that a some type of deep pentrating shotgun slug could be designed with a penetrating design and bestowed enough energy to be moderately effective on DG by the abuse I have sustained on the end of some 3.5 inch 12 gauges I have shot. Penetration is the name of the game.As far as the "flat" Brennekes and slugs out there now,how much penetration actually occurred with Buff shot and at what distance??--I suggest the members of Shotgun World go after some Buff on video and follow them up in the long grass if those Dixie slugs don't penetrate enough. Should be interesting real world experience.They may wish some NE forum member would back them up with a Double though!!
