I have to go with Doyle on this one. I use a smooth bore 12 gauge single shot. The barrel seems to matter also. A thicker barrel is usually better with a smooth bore and ammo type realllllly makes a difference. Mine will shoot one ragged hole at 50 yards with 3 shots. I use Federal ammo. I know I have shot two deer at 70 yards and it hit where I aimed. I should use mid-range targets to determine where it finally goes wild, and will check that this summer. I gave my 20 gauge rifled gun to my Buddy. He shoots at a more open area and swears it is dead on at 100+. I don't know how far the sabots go, but that might be a consideration for you. I would rather have slugs that drop off fast where I am hunting.
