Smooth bore no sights I'm guessing? #4's from the 28" modified choked bbl will put them down.

Well, in that case you're limited to Fosters, standard slugs. NO SABOTS IN A SMOOTHBORE. I've had decent luck using my action as a rear receiver. If the top of the action is grooved you can kind of use that with the bead as a set of sights. Just get the front bead cantered and play with it. If you have more chokes besides MOD figure out which shoots best with slugs. I'm bettin on the modified.

Other then down the road needing a new barrel what is wrong with a sabot in a smooth bore? Yes this barrel has the rail and bead.

Sabot's are only for rifled bbls. In short, they don't allow for the extra pressure (caused by the sabot) to pass by, like a Foster does, and there's a 50/50 chance it will banana your barrel and maybe take out an eye or two in the process. Your call.

Good call! You can shoot slugs through that gun, just no sabots. Have fun and be safe! Sorry if I was a damper, just don't want to read about you in the paper.

No problem. I use to shoot my bow a lot and took 2nd in the state of Colorado in a lower class 7 yrs ago and have shot a lot since. Just never hunted with a bow. So what the heck it is only a hog. I miss I miss. Then I get my 7mm mag from my nephew after he gets a hog and make a Hog have a bad day with my 7mm mag.
