Most slug shooters use the Improved Cylinder choke for both slugs and buckshot.
The slugs that are most used in SMOOTH bores are the various brands of rifled slugs.
The sabot slugs have a plastic jacket or sabot over a smaller lead slug, and are intended to be shot from dedicated slug guns that have rifled barrels.
For best results, do some experimenting. Buy as many different brands of rifled slugs as you can and shoot them for accuracy.
If you want to really get into it, you can also experiment with different chokes.
You can safely shoot slugs and buckshot through any standard choke from Cylinder Bore to Full.
Where things get "iffy" is in shooting them through specialty "Extra Full" chokes.
Best suggestion, start out with the Improved Cylinder. It'll probably be the best.
For slugs, try as many as you can, but you'll probably have the best results with premium American made slugs.
For the best accuracy, you'll need some sort of iron sights or an optical sight.
Most slug shooters get very good groups at 100 yards with a smooth bore gun and sights.
