2 days ago I brought my Winchester 1300 12 gauge Slug Hunter to the range to see how accurate I could be with it. Brought along my Improved Cylinder choke tube and 3 boxes of Winchester 2 3/4" Rifled slugs. These are the kind of slugs you were talking about - just regular sugs with the "fins", no sabot, shot out of a 22" smoothbore barrel, open sights(no scope). The results? 5 rounds into 4 1/2 " at 100 yards. I don't know if the fins help or hurt accuracy, or if they put any kind of spin on the projectile or not. I just know that 4 1/2" groups at 100 yards is accurate enough to kill deer where I hunt.

Now I just need to find some of those deer.
