"I've been plagued with a weird hate for shotguns whole my life. I just can't stand the though of my rifle not making a clean single hole were I want it. Problem is, I do understand how versatile they are. Talk me out of it, please!"
My first post on this forum - so here goes ...OP says "..talk me out of it"
I like my 12 gauge shotgun. It is fun to shoot. It is a Mossberg 500 and has a Surefire light mounted on it when I use it for home defense with the 18" barrel. For fun at the range(and maybe one day I'll take it hunting) I mount the 24" ported rifled slug barrel. Mount a decent scope and shoot Remington Acutip sabot slugs gives me nice groups at 100 yards. Acutips make nice, clean and BIG holes. I also added a recoil supressing stock helps a lot and I do not shoot 3" shells, stick with the 2 3/4", so there's less shock to my shoulder. I would shoot slugs all day if they weren't so darn expensive!
