If you have a rifled barrel do NOT shoot rifled slugs through it. I believe that the slug twists opposite of the rifling (I think, I could be wrong). Anyway, there was a guy who came into the gun shop the other day who had shot a rifled through a rifled. Two shots and the bore was destroyed.
Rifled slugs can only be shot in smoothbores.
Saboted can be shot in either, but are designed for rifled barrels.
