Best Choke For Slugs

- Опубликовано: 6 авг 2024
- I shoot 5 round groups with 5 different choke tubes ranging from cylinder bore to full and compare the group size. This was shot with my CZ 1012 using Winchester 1oz Super X rifled slugs.

I like this guy. Just chilled out and honest about the results.
I've noticed vertical stringing when shooting slugs from my Beretta A300. It shot an almost perfect vertical line above and below the point of aim, about 6" overall with 5 rounds. I/C choke.
Nice video. Got my eye on a cz1012.
Your worst are better than some 'best' I have seen. Again, thanks for the truth telling.
Thanks, those would be some scary bad groups!
full choke went "Full-CHOKE" on those foster slugs. Nasty grouping.
Beautiful shotgun. The video was excellent, this is exactly what I wanted to know about chokes
They say the 20gauge slugs are better than the 12gauge at our range,,100.yards 1" groups,,Savage bolt action slug gun..
Even my man was like, yup, this video sucked LMFAO. I liked it anyways. You didn't have to upload but you did, thanks for that. Have a great day bro!!!
Haha, things don't always turn out as planned. You have a great day as well.
I always had best luck with modified chock for deer hunting in SE MN growing up.🇺🇲🔪🌲🔥
They are all equally Horrendous. I like your style sir.
Hi Allen, Thank you for information, great video. Superlike!!! Greetings from Ecuador!!
Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. Take care down there!
Improved modified, with that gun and ammo seems the winner to me, and it seemed to be a good performer in your buckshot test as well.
Hi, I like your shotgun. I find the slug shooting interesting. Not used where I live but certainly adds to the versatility of the 12 guage shotgun. Thanks for sharing Dave
Thanks for watching! I feel the same way.
I had trouble using a lead sled sighting in my rifled barrel 12ga..pushed it aside and used stacked up sand bags..things progressed nicely after that.
Good to know!
Interesting results. Great vid
Thank you!
That improved modified did great for a smooth bore
Thank you sir for the information 👍
You are very welcome, thanks for watching!
Try using carlson rifled choke tube for slugs and sabots even steel shot.
Nice , Another AMAZING video pard !
Glad you liked it Bill. Always good to read your comments.
@@gunsgearoutdoorsalaska5875 I really enjoy your video pard
Thanks for testing 🤙
Thanks for watching!
Remember, when shooting slugs that thin barrel wall heats up much faster than a thicker rifle barrel. This can string shots vertically in rapid fire.
🤣😂🤣😂 “man these groups are terrible”. Welp it just be like that sometimes
Maybe you can make a video with winchester, federal, remington, hornady etc, with 1 oz foster slugs out of an 870.
Glad your feeling better. May need to try another brand of slugs.
Thanks! I think your right about that.
Most of not all slug hunters use rifled barrels. Alot of states not require them along with iron sights no beads
I apreciate the time stamp
awesome 😎 very informative 👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thanks a lot, glad you liked it!
slugs are made for full choke for safety.
after teaching much factory and reloaded ammunition in my lifetime i was having the same problem with Winchester 12 ga slugs with scopes and red dots. the problem i discovered by accident. when shooting Winchester slugs i different barrel lengths with the tube out the recoil was pushing slug back compacting wad and you could shake shell up and down and hear and fill the slug moving. greatly affecting accuracy. so when i shoot test or sighted in i load and shoot only one shell at a time increasing accuracy. Winchester the worst I've tested .Remington and federal the best I've tested. the Remington and federal will on occasion will become loose but not like Winchester. for at least the last 4_5 years Winchester has got sloppy in there manufacturing and not just shotgun shells. i would recommend leaving the plug in especially with magnum high brass slugs .reducing the harsh recoil pushing slug back . really a big bear inside 25 yards charging at you 1,2,possibly 3 shots before it's on the ground bleeding out or you just became lunch. papa wishing you well 😊
You need a shorter barrel. A cylinder choke or a rifled choke. Although I have seen shotguns and certain barrels , chokes defy science. I have seen a Remington 1100 with a 28 inch vent rib barrel & saddle mount with a Tasco 4 power scope modified choke. Shoot a inch and half group at 75 yards . Now with that said the tightest groups I have gotten with shotgun was with a Remington 870 SP slug gun . The barrel was a 20 inch choked slug barrel iron sights . I killed a nice Ohio 12 point with it .
Then I I got a 11-87 SP slug gun fully rifled with cantilever barrel topped with Simmons pro diamond scope .
Point is when it comes to slugs and shotguns you can spend $1000 and still not have a great shooting gun . Or you can just grab your average shotgun throw some slugs into it and have a excellent shooter . I have never been that lucky . I have had to spend a couple hundred just to have decent slug gun.🤬😁
Good to hear from someone who hunts with them. Sounds like there is a lot of variables at play, not all of them under our control.
Thanks for the test. I’d have to agree, that shotgun does not like that specific slug load. The difference between brands can be extreme beyond belief. The availability not to mention the cost to find the best for your gun, may be money and time well spent.
You do have a great slug shooting shotgun in you bear defense Mossberg. Just make sure you seal up those slugs it likes.
Thanks again for the honesty and the video. Take care.
Thanks a lot. It is a better slug shooter than this one, that's for sure.
Vertical spreading is generally a sign of unequal powder loading,, which is very common in 12 gauge shotgun shells. I've never heard of match grade shotgun ammo, but it would be great if they made it for slugs. I'd sure like to know where my slug is going.
Thanks for sharing, that's good to know.
This is why i wish we were able to get slugs to reload. used to get good performance from "Reduced Recoil" slugs from Remington-we used those for MCSO until we went to Rifle only. Biggest spread was 6" at 100yds. sad that remington stopped making them.
The first shots with the cylinder and imp cylinder weren't awful and would kill a deer at 50 no problem. I have a Beretta A300, put in the imp cylinder choke that thing is deadly at 50yds, rifle like accuracy, using Federal Tru-Ball.
I think a rifled choke is best for slugs, which you would have used one.
Nice job on the video and this slug-shooting review. In 12 GA I've found these Winchester Foster slugs to shoot very well for me in my old but reliable JC HIGGINS Model 20 which I had converted to accept a rifled choke tube. I consistently get 2" groups at 50 yards! I suspect it's because my barrel is fixed and not removable. You've got a couple of things going on here, one is as the barrel heats up your shot string rises in every round of five-shot groups regardless of the choke tube. Also since this is a semi-auto and the barrel is not fixed there is no consistency between shots.
i got a benelli m4 with a fixed mod improved smooth bore, and people always tell me never to shoot rifled slugs, but im sure it should be fine right
I’ve got the same shotgun and was wondering if it can shoot slugs with the chokes. You answered the question.. thanks! Just curious were you shooting lead ammo and do you know if it can shoot steel slugs? Thanks keeep up the good work
They were lead. Soft lead slugs can be shot through chokes. I would follow manufacturers recommendations with steel slugs but my guess would be no. Thanks for watching!
I love shooting slugs and buck. What I have noticed from standard lead foster slugs is that they cause extreme leading in the bores. I have to use a bronze brush on a drill to get it out. I would be curious to know what your bore looks like after 25 slugs. Thanks for the test!
Wow, she was dirty but I didn't notice anything that bad. Thanks for watching.
Diesel I am new to shot guns & the local indoor range requires slugs only. I shot 90 slugs thru my Tavor TS 12 & the gas cylinder had frozen from all the lead from those slugs. When I took off the cap at the end of the gas tube big chunks of lead fell out. Morale of the story is that slugs are dirty ammo & will lead up your shot gun. I was advised to use penetrating oil & let it soak into the gas cylinder. Also a Hoppe's Tornado bore brush in a power drill gets the lead out.
25 slugs ? That would have been about the time to stop shooting & clean it looking back on it.
@@ag4allgood that is similar to what I see. I use a rod on an electri drill. Sometimes wrap OOOO steel wool around the bore brush. People who say they don’t get leading from dlugs in their smoothbore don’t know how to look for it. After initial cleaning the leading is the same color as the clean shiny bore.
They get messy.
It took me forever to clean my beretta barrel .
Need to soak the barrel with bore cleaner and let it sit, clean other parts , then at the end, come back to cleaning the barrel. Should be enough time to loosen up the dirt
That's pretty much what those cleaner shells are for. The ones that shoot a brush, some patches and some steel shot. They break out that deposited lead from slugs. XD
First group you shot would be what i used
Hi Allen, I have an unrelated question I'm wondering if you could answer. What scope rings are you using to mount the scope to your CZ 1012? I have one as well, and was informed by a customer service rep at CZ USA that there aren't currently any scope mounts on the market that fit directly to this receiver.
@Alan Wong, Alan is out of all cell and Wi-Fi service until late August. He is doing remote work for Alaska Fish & Game. I’m sure he will be more than happy to answer any and all comments and questions upon his return to civilization.
They are 1 inch rings that clamp to the 3/8 inch claw mount slots on the receiver. This is a common scope mounting setup for rimfires. As you can see my results were not the greatest, if you do try I hope it works better for you.
I've had a lot of accuracy problems with Winchester ammunition in many different calibers, think something's going on at Winchester? My 338 win mag with horny,Barnes and Norma ammo is sub half mao I would rather throw rocks at an animal than shoot Winchester ammo at it
That's good to know that you were having problems with it too, especially in guns known to shoot well.
@gunsgearoutdoorsalaska5875 I had a .45 acp in my 1911 fall on ground literally 3ft ahead of me shooting once. Near squib load. WWB 100rd value pack from Walmart. Won't use it without doing slow fire now.
what happened to the rifled choke tube ‘ thanks
I did not have one to test.
The guns I've slug tested (Mossberg 835 (12ga), Remington 870(12ga), Remington 1100 (12ga & 20ga) got far better and much more repeatable accuracy using Brenneke slugs
Those Winchester slugs must be pretty inconsistent then.
@@gunsgearoutdoorsalaska5875 I've done some extensive slug testing and in my experience the Brenneke slugs are far more consistent shot to shot and box to box.
The other slugs I've tried that were Foster type such as offereings from Remington, Federal and Winchester differred in point of impact lot to lot as much as 8'' at 50 yards. The box to box impact difference for Brennneke slugs never varied more than 2''
Brenneke all the way got way better groups in an 1100
I know I can’t tell you what too do but out of a mossberg 835 (I own one myself) you shouldn’t shoot slugs it’s a overbored shotgun on average they are .777 so for a slug that’s like throwing a hotdog down a hallway (this unless you have some special slug barrel on it I just have the factory waterfowl one)
Using the full,was there more recoil?
I didn't notice any difference.
Try this with a riflesdchoke tube. Buffalo had some good results, i'd like to see if you can replicate them.
👍🏼👍🏼
carlson raifel chok 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I will look it up.
Can brenneke slugs be shot with chokes?
No! Those you can't, designed different and harder lead. Definately not.

Thank you Allen, here is another you tuber that has done extensive shotgun slug work. Fortunecookie45.
Cool, I will check him out.
hey,your video is great! I just send you email for review ,pls check your box, thank you!
@SuperFire I’m sure Alan will be happy to give you a response. He is currently out doing remote work. He doesn’t have cell or internet service until he returns in a week or two.
Thanks I appreciate it, sent you an email back.
