joshxdm9 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I am newb to 3gun. I have asked around and get many different answers to this question. Not sure if it matters but I run a 26" versamax. Also should only rifled slugs be used for smooth bore barrel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbauer67 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I use an IC for almost everything in my SLP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatland Shooter Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I'll use slugs in any choke that the stage requires. Take a few slugs and your chokes out to the range and see how they shoot. In my gun, LM is the most accurate and CYL the least accurate, but both are acceptable for 3 gun. I'm shooting Carlson chokes in a MKA 1919.

joshxdm9 Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 So can you use any choke with rifled slugs?? Guess my question is its not going to damage the barrel to run a slug down with a full choke?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskapopo Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Full choke is safe with most slugs from what I have read. I have shot them in full chokes with no issue. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatland Shooter Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Full choke is safe with slugs, but how often do you use full choke in 3 gun? Other than playing with a spinner, it don't have much use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshxdm9 Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 Ok thanks for the info. I will be going out this week to try with mod and ic to see which one is more accurate with the slugs I run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than playing with a spinner, it don't have much use. We have these pipe targets that are hard to knock over and a tighter choke is better. We have also used targets launched from trap machines in our matches where a tighter choke is also handy. So they can have a use. pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xscream Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Remington recommends not using any choke tighter than IC with slugs in a Versamax FWIW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
